73
00:03:10,719 --> 00:03:12,680

80
00:03:30,199 --> 00:03:34,840
like everybody else, level playing field. It's all easie.

81
00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:38,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, unless you don't like salt on the rim, then

82
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,560
you can rotten hell.

83
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, insault on the room. I like all sorts of

84
00:03:41,919 --> 00:03:44,439
dusty fun flavors on the rim. I think you can

85
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,280
like lick the side of the glass like a weirdo,

86
00:03:46,319 --> 00:03:47,400
but I still like the taste.

87
00:03:48,639 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

88
00:03:48,879 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 2: You can also just like put that part in your

89
00:03:51,439 --> 00:03:52,319
mouth when you drink it.

90
00:03:52,439 --> 00:03:54,319
Speaker 1: But sometimes it goes like real deep, Like I got

91
00:03:54,319 --> 00:03:57,439
something that I'm not a fan of that I had

92
00:03:57,439 --> 00:04:00,240
to show a tongue the whole deal. Yeah, yeah, that's

93
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,360
like that. I don't care for that. I would appreciate

94
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:08,400
if people stopped from Northern Rohn really.

95
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,919
Speaker 4: Think that the Army of Margaritaville would.

96
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 2: Be like, I mean, the fatigues are definitely Hawaiian. The

97
00:04:17,759 --> 00:04:20,160
Hawaiian shirts, travel flip flops.

98
00:04:20,759 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 4: It's all Hawaiian straw hats, crawling on the ground, led

99
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:29,720
by four star Margeritaville General Mike Manatti.

100
00:04:30,839 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 1: Yes, the patent speech in front of a big Jimmy

101
00:04:37,199 --> 00:04:42,639
Buffett flag. The most violent weapon they'd have is like

102
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:44,360
umbrella spears.

103
00:04:44,439 --> 00:04:45,879
Speaker 3: They could do harpoon guns, I guess.

104
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: Yeah.

105
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, brutal way to die is through the heart with.

106
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 2: An umbrella.

107
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: Open it. Yeah, yeah, smart, Yeah, that's more. That's more

108
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,519
just to like ward off other people. They are coming

109
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,120
at you. You get you see your friend taking umbrella

110
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:04,879
through the heart. You're not going anywhere close to the

111
00:05:04,879 --> 00:05:05,519
guy who did it.

112
00:05:06,519 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're like the men from Margueriteaville fight with the

113
00:05:10,759 --> 00:05:12,920
strength of ten regular men.

114
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:14,079
Speaker 2: Imagine drunk men.

115
00:05:14,439 --> 00:05:19,399
Speaker 1: Imagine thirty years later, like in movies when they're showing

116
00:05:19,439 --> 00:05:23,160
the like translucent overlay of what happened over the guy

117
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,079
who's clearly lost in PTSD thought. Imagine the guy just

118
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,439
kind of having an episode and then you just see

119
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,399
like men in Hawaiian shirts spearing people with umbrellas.

120
00:05:33,639 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, eating cheeseburgers in Paradise.

121
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,199
Speaker 1: Set to the song where William Dafoe is getting machine

122
00:05:38,199 --> 00:05:45,040
gun from the helicopter the horror. Yeah, no, were you

123
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,040
a place far away in a time long ago.

124
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 3: Hopefully you never have to see it.

125
00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,439
Speaker 4: I said, no umbrellas to me, take it away.

126
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: I said, no open toad shoes. Cassandra reminds me of

127
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:05,480
when my friend took one to the foot. We should

128
00:06:05,519 --> 00:06:06,600
start an improv troop.

129
00:06:06,959 --> 00:06:09,839
Speaker 2: It'd be great. That's what everybody wants.

130
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've been clamoring more improv troops is what the

131
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:13,720
world needs.

132
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,079
Speaker 2: We'll do. We'll do a new tier. We're gonna do

133
00:06:16,079 --> 00:06:19,839
an improv troop, a new tier. I thought you said

134
00:06:19,959 --> 00:06:23,399
nude tears. Nude improv is the gimmick.

135
00:06:23,519 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: So it's like, yeah, nude computer, load up, nude tear please.

136
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:36,319
Speaker 4: No, that's the computer refuses.

137
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 2: Sparks, fly out and kills itself.

138
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 1: We talk all the time about the Firehouse nude calendar.

139
00:06:44,519 --> 00:06:45,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we never did it.

140
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:50,199
Speaker 4: Fires Cape nude calendar. I want to do that since

141
00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:55,759
I to have the the sexiest men of games journalism.

142
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,160
And it's just like Minati with his like little little

143
00:06:59,199 --> 00:07:04,360
shorts looking behind him, surprised, you know, like one of

144
00:07:04,399 --> 00:07:07,319
those people just like nipping at the.

145
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a dog. Yeah, yeah, I.

146
00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:12,079
Speaker 4: Would buy it.

147
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,759
Speaker 5: I probably wouldn't hang it, but I would buy it.

148
00:07:14,839 --> 00:07:17,600
I would support this the hottest men case.

149
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,079
Speaker 2: I mean many would buy that because we have heard

150
00:07:20,079 --> 00:07:23,680
from Mike MANAUGHTI that he gets some salacious emails from

151
00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:26,720
people looking for a certain type.

152
00:07:28,279 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 4: There's a term for it, and he's that type of

153
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:31,399
a certain type.

154
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:32,519
Speaker 2: He is that type.

155
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: Yes, he's had to say on streams like please stop

156
00:07:35,279 --> 00:07:39,639
sending me emails about wanting things from me because I

157
00:07:39,759 --> 00:07:44,600
happened to fit a certain type. Interesting. Yeah, okay, the

00:08:06,639 --> 00:08:11,839
bowling image or image story I respond full penetration because

168
00:08:11,879 --> 00:08:13,000
I think that name was better.

169
00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:17,759
Speaker 4: Thank you. I'm glad somebody liked it because it wasn't

170
00:08:17,839 --> 00:08:22,439
very popular when I said it. But Amanda actually had

171
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,519
the best response when we posted the picture, and she said,

172
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,439
you can't split with us. Oh nice, she's smarter than

173
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:29,879
all of us.

174
00:08:29,959 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 6: Yeah.

175
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,279
Speaker 5: Because it's a reference to a Lindsay Lohan movie being gone.

176
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:37,279
Speaker 2: Oh, the bowling. I know the bowling.

177
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, some of the well you should see it's one

178
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:42,000
of the greatest movie.

179
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: It's great.

180
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I heard it's good.

181
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,799
Speaker 4: It's very good, but it has the bowling. Names are

182
00:08:48,879 --> 00:08:49,639
very important.

183
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,799
Speaker 5: And one of the names on a that we were

184
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,600
competing against, they were just Team four and we were like,

185
00:08:55,639 --> 00:08:56,000
that's weird.

186
00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:56,879
Speaker 4: Why you guys come up with.

187
00:08:56,879 --> 00:08:59,480
Speaker 5: A good name, And they were like we did and

188
00:08:59,519 --> 00:09:04,080
it got rejected, and so we in protest refuse to

189
00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,279
come up with another name and said what was.

190
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 4: Your canceled name? And they said it was seven to ten.

191
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: Split is a weed reference in Portly, they were they

192
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:14,960
took on bridge with.

193
00:09:14,919 --> 00:09:17,519
Speaker 4: That and legal here that.

194
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, like raised before anybody else.

195
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's no different than having a beer reference, which

196
00:09:22,039 --> 00:09:23,600
people do all the time.

197
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,639
Speaker 2: I think even with like weed being legalized, I think

198
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,360
there are still like people that have not come around

199
00:09:29,399 --> 00:09:32,039
to it. It's like my dad still doesn't understand that,

200
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,200
like if it's legal, you can just smoke in a park,

201
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,279
you can smoke and wherever you can smoke a cigarette.

202
00:09:37,279 --> 00:09:38,799
It's like, no, this is no way that's true. And

203
00:09:38,799 --> 00:09:41,200
it's like, yeah, you can, Like some people just cannot

204
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:42,759
fathom the idea that it's legal now.

205
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: But in Portland, Oregon, I think of all places they'd be.

206
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 4: All drugs are legal here, Like, it's crazy, all drugs

207
00:09:52,919 --> 00:09:55,799
legal or decriminalized, criminalized.

208
00:09:55,919 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, well weed is legal, yes, heroines decriminalized.

209
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 3: I'm saying this is a as if. I know.

210
00:10:00,799 --> 00:10:03,279
Speaker 1: I read one Times article like six months ago, and

211
00:10:03,279 --> 00:10:04,840
it sounds like it was not going well.

212
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,519
Speaker 4: But yes, they still they're still they're still doing crime.

213
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 2: Wait, so what's the what's not going well about it?

214
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,200
Is like crime up.

215
00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,039
Speaker 4: I think the idea behind it was stop putting them

216
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,200
in jail and start putting them in rehab centers where

217
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,200
people who are like addicts actually genuinely need it. I'm

218
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,320
not really good at this stuff and do my best

219
00:10:27,639 --> 00:10:31,720
to describe it, which is just like essentially we decriminalized it,

220
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,919
but there's just not enough centers open for people who

221
00:10:35,039 --> 00:10:38,159
like need them. And there's the other subset of people

222
00:10:38,159 --> 00:10:40,799
who are like I don't want to be rehabilitated. I

223
00:10:41,039 --> 00:10:43,759
want drugs, to have my drugs, and so it doesn't

224
00:10:43,799 --> 00:10:46,200
satisfy for that need either. So like some people just

225
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:47,120
need to go to jail.

226
00:10:48,519 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 5: You know what, I mean, like some people like they

227
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,720
don't want they don't want to get better, they don't

228
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,720
want housing, they would like to do crime and do drugs,

229
00:10:56,759 --> 00:10:58,320
and we can't help them.

230
00:10:58,360 --> 00:10:59,759
Speaker 2: So all right, Mary, not to put you on spot,

231
00:11:00,039 --> 00:11:03,919
we will need you to propose a clear solution right now,

232
00:11:04,759 --> 00:11:05,159
right now.

233
00:11:05,879 --> 00:11:10,039
Speaker 5: I think what other states did was they put them

234
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:12,159
on a bus and shipped them to another state and

235
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,559
made it someone else's fucking problem, which I think is

236
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:18,000
evil as shit. And then I feel like some other

237
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,159
states solution is just they're really cold and then all

238
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,159
the people freeze off in the winter and then they

239
00:11:23,159 --> 00:11:24,480
start again each spring.

240
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: So yes, there's like frost punk in New York City.

241
00:11:29,759 --> 00:11:31,759
Speaker 5: Like I'm not a mayor, Like, I don't know what

242
00:11:31,799 --> 00:11:34,320
you're supposed to fucking do, but my thought is, genuinely,

243
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,080
if you're refusing treatment.

244
00:11:35,919 --> 00:11:37,559
Speaker 4: To jail, that's how I feel.

245
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:39,600
Speaker 5: Like, if you really genuinely don't want to get better

246
00:11:39,639 --> 00:11:42,360
and you're just sitting there shooting up to jail, that's

247
00:11:42,399 --> 00:11:43,080
how I feel.

248
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 4: I think you should go to rehab.

249
00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 5: And if you don't want to, then you know, like

250
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:54,039
sit in sit in this square.

251
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,759
Speaker 1: So first, all of a sudden, Trump accepts this flying

252
00:11:57,879 --> 00:11:59,919
fucking fortress. And then all of a sudden, Biden's back

253
00:12:00,039 --> 00:12:02,399
answer and then next thing, you know, I don't know

254
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,919
to a flying fortress. He accepted a flying fortress, accepted it.

255
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:08,279
He's doctor Robotnik.

256
00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, basically, wait, are is this news to you?

257
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,799
Speaker 1: He's becoming sorry, he has a flying fortress. Yes, this

258
00:12:13,919 --> 00:12:17,000
is news to me. All right, before we get off politics,

259
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,879
because I think this threatens to go off the rails.

260
00:12:18,919 --> 00:12:21,399
Speaker 2: Yes, he's wait to saving for the politics section here

261
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,879
of the podcast.

262
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,879
Speaker 1: It's the biggest bribe in presidential history. He's accepting from Qatar, Kater,

263
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,480
how do they want to pronounce a like their luxury

264
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:36,279
flying fucking mansion, and he's making air Force one that

265
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:37,960
I can't make way stuff up?

266
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 2: Seriously, I guess you've been busy with giant bombs. I've

267
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:41,960
been busy.

268
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: Yeah.

269
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,399
Speaker 4: Because he used to always read the New York Times

270
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:46,080
every morning.

271
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, wow, so he is formally here's the New York

272
00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:55,120
Times to Robotnik by by the day. Yes, I mean,

273
00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,360
if we got to deal with him, I guess it

274
00:12:56,399 --> 00:12:58,879
would be funnier if he was doctor Robotnik, you know.

275
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, because then it it makes the villainy like.

276
00:13:03,279 --> 00:13:07,679
Speaker 1: Kind of like it smooths the edges.

277
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 4: Or I really want to know how funny it is.

278
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,519
Speaker 5: I really want to know that the person that's gonna

279
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:15,200
fucking kill me and take away my citizenship has some

280
00:13:15,279 --> 00:13:17,639
kind of comedic mustache.

281
00:13:17,159 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 2: Anyway doing the start plane fucking rules.

282
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 1: This is a big plane. Yeah no, yeah, he's yeah,

283
00:13:26,519 --> 00:13:27,240
you can just do that.

284
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 4: No you're not.

285
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 2: I guess so, well, no, not if they offered it

286
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,679
to not Saudi Ara. What if it's like the plane

287
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:38,600
company offered it to me as a internet beloved video gamesman,

288
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,960
I take that. Yeah, I guess you could. Yeah, it's

289
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:44,919
not your It would be less of an issue if

290
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,840
I took an air fortress, then the president, I think,

291
00:13:47,879 --> 00:13:51,600
so okay, yes, well it's an option airplane people, Yeah,

292
00:13:51,799 --> 00:13:54,440
hit up Saudi Arabia. No, just bowing. I'll just deal

293
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:55,519
directly with whoever it was.

294
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're close contact with Boeing.

295
00:14:00,039 --> 00:14:05,159
Speaker 2: Sure people blood where we already did politics? What about health?

296
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,960
Let's get people health advice. Oh I've been so, I've

297
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,440
been a bunch of dark blood.

298
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: Mucus has been coming out of my nose for a

299
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:15,639
week and then it stopped, and now it's.

300
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:16,360
Speaker 2: Coming out of my throat.

301
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:17,159
Speaker 1: Today.

302
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 2: I was in the shower and a bunch of like

303
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,320
like just dark, gross, thick blood came out of my throat.

304
00:14:22,519 --> 00:14:25,039
Speaker 4: Dare doctor when blood comes out of you?

305
00:14:25,399 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 2: But it's like I had a cold. And so I

306
00:14:27,559 --> 00:14:29,159
did do like a video call and be like, hey,

307
00:14:29,399 --> 00:14:31,840
check out this gross picture. And she was like, look,

308
00:14:31,879 --> 00:14:34,480
it's probably just like irritated nasal passages.

309
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,559
Speaker 1: She was this doctor on the video call. A doctor said,

310
00:14:38,600 --> 00:14:41,799
it's fine that you're said, it's like it's like it's

311
00:14:41,799 --> 00:14:44,120
not actively like gushing. It's not like it just seems

312
00:14:44,159 --> 00:14:47,440
like it's old dried blood, but it's like very dark.

313
00:14:47,559 --> 00:14:49,279
Speaker 2: It's like it's weird. I got a couple of things

314
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,720
going on. Look you open this door. I got gross

315
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,120
dark blood coming out of my nose and throat. And

316
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,039
also my shits are looking like poppy seed muffins. There's

317
00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,000
like a million fucking little black seeds in my turn

318
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,679
birds today, and my farts are real bad.

319
00:15:04,519 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: Do you have any theories as to what the poppy seed?

320
00:15:06,759 --> 00:15:09,960
Ask the poppy seeds? I ate two bananas yesterday. I

321
00:15:10,039 --> 00:15:13,879
normally have a maximum of one banana banana, and.

322
00:15:14,879 --> 00:15:16,600
Speaker 4: Maybe it's all your banana liquor.

323
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:18,799
Speaker 3: Yeah, y all that crumbed to banana.

324
00:15:19,279 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 2: The banana runs.

325
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, So I'm hoping it is just banana seeds in

326
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:24,720
my ship.

327
00:15:24,799 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 2: And that's just been today. The fart's been bad for

328
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:27,080
a couple of days.

329
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:28,279
Speaker 4: It's a banana seed.

330
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: There's seeds. There's a little black seeds in there. And

331
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:32,799
I had a bunch of quine wa yesterday. I had

332
00:15:32,799 --> 00:15:35,519
a bunch of kin one tonight. But normally I can

333
00:15:35,559 --> 00:15:36,440
digest it fine.

334
00:15:36,919 --> 00:15:39,759
Speaker 1: So I'm hoping my bust and blood and have it

335
00:15:39,799 --> 00:15:40,639
in costello.

336
00:15:40,679 --> 00:15:47,320
Speaker 2: I had a bunch of quine wa tonight. Yeah, banana.

337
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: But I'm not like actively in a bunch of pain.

338
00:15:51,799 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 2: I'm just my stomach's been weird and rumbly, and I'm

339
00:15:54,519 --> 00:15:56,200
just bleeding out of holes in my head.

340
00:15:56,519 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 5: I just don't think that you're ever supposed to bleed

341
00:15:58,679 --> 00:15:59,480
out of any hole.

342
00:16:00,679 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: But I'm like, I'm feeling.

343
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:03,759
Speaker 2: I started running like I'm full on training now for

344
00:16:03,799 --> 00:16:06,720
the marathon. So it's like four miles a day, three yesterday,

345
00:16:06,799 --> 00:16:09,720
six on Sunday. Like I'm running. I'm good. I'm feeling.

346
00:16:09,799 --> 00:16:12,679
Speaker 5: Doesn't mean that you are allowed to bleed.

347
00:16:12,759 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 2: It gets the blood out just squeezing.

348
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: The boy doesn't cancel anything else out of it's making

349
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,200
me less fat, and so it's squeezing all the excess

350
00:16:21,279 --> 00:16:23,679
goop out of my body through my holes. You know that.

351
00:16:25,879 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 4: Where they say that pain is just uh, the body,

352
00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:33,000
blood is just.

353
00:16:33,279 --> 00:16:34,679
Speaker 2: Blood is fat leaving the body.

354
00:16:34,759 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 4: It's your fucking blood leaving the body, and you need it.

355
00:16:37,679 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 3: You don't die. They go to hell to regroup.

356
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,759
Speaker 2: No, I really think it's okay. I do think it's okay.

357
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,320
It's gross. Look I got do you want to see pictures?

358
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:46,799
Speaker 1: No? Do?

359
00:16:46,919 --> 00:16:50,240
Speaker 4: Your action looks like a muffin? Like is it muffin shaped?

360
00:16:50,559 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's just like if a muff if

361
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,039
if a poppy seed muffin was turd shaped. Hey all,

362
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:58,600
you hundreds of new patrons, get out on our video.

363
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,120
That's oh, here's here's a wait wait wait, wait, wait

364
00:17:02,159 --> 00:17:03,960
prep me. Is this the blood stuff or is this

365
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,400
the puppet? Oh my god, that's.

366
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 4: I don't like it.

367
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,559
Speaker 1: It's your dog, doctor said, that's probably fine a video

368
00:17:14,759 --> 00:17:15,799
call doctor.

369
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 2: Here's another one from yeah, like this is like it's thick.

370
00:17:20,839 --> 00:17:23,920
Oh my god, yeah, are you fine?

371
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 1: Now?

372
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:25,839
Speaker 2: That was from my nose. Now it's coming out of

373
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:31,799
my throat, which I think is better because it's moving down. Yeah,

374
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,200
that's farther from my brain.

375
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:35,640
Speaker 4: Keep it away from your heart.

376
00:17:36,039 --> 00:17:37,759
Speaker 2: If I keep it just out coming out of the

377
00:17:37,839 --> 00:17:40,279
mouth hole, then that's the middle point of the brain

378
00:17:40,319 --> 00:17:40,720
and the heart.

379
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,839
Speaker 4: I don't know. I think you should get a second opinion.

380
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:49,519
Speaker 1: I don't. I'm in between what situations right now.

381
00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 3: Serious enough to consider.

382
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,720
Speaker 2: Though I feel fine, well the outside I do have

383
00:17:56,799 --> 00:17:59,519
I have been having crippling etaches behind my eyes and stuff.

384
00:17:59,759 --> 00:18:01,680
Speaker 1: But oh my god, dude, well look.

385
00:18:01,519 --> 00:18:04,640
Speaker 2: I was descending into Montreal and then I had incredibly

386
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:12,000
oh let me show you this fucking picture ended into montrealre.

387
00:18:10,559 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 3: Like fucking fandom was holding you together, dude.

388
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, so you insurance. I love sending in Montreal,

389
00:18:19,079 --> 00:18:22,000
and like I had like a nose stuffy situation. So

390
00:18:22,039 --> 00:18:24,279
I started getting serious pain in my ears and then

391
00:18:24,319 --> 00:18:27,519
like the sharpest pain ever behind my right eyebrow. So

392
00:18:27,559 --> 00:18:30,160
for like three minutes, yeah, yeah, while it was all

393
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,640
blocked up and everything. That's the north aerro sinusciitis or whatever.

394
00:18:32,759 --> 00:18:34,599
But then I land and it's the different countries. So

395
00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,160
they make you take a picture for your passport thing

396
00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,200
and all that. And I was not trying to make

397
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:40,119
a face when they took my photo at the thing.

398
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,720
But this is what they have on file for me

399
00:18:41,799 --> 00:18:46,960
landing in Montreal. Damn, you look like respute.

400
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,759
Speaker 1: And what is this? That's the worst photo of me

401
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,519
that's ever You look like the NBA two K scan

402
00:18:53,839 --> 00:18:54,319
of you.

403
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 5: That looks like an AI generated murderer who's going out

404
00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:58,960
of prison.

405
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,839
Speaker 2: I shape, I've never looked like that ever.

406
00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,880
Speaker 1: That looks like a character from Watchdog's Legion who you

407
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,680
scan and you're trying to possess, and it's like he's homeless.

408
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,480
Speaker 3: His only skill is blending in.

409
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 2: Look, I'm not trying to God's concerned. I actually feel

410
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,359
fine again. I just ran four miles, like a couple

411
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:15,960
of hours ago.

412
00:19:16,279 --> 00:19:19,319
Speaker 5: That was like one of those NBA two K scanning features,

413
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,240
but it fucked up the scan of your face and

414
00:19:21,279 --> 00:19:22,440
just gave you half eyes.

415
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 1: I just said that, Mike, we've established we don't listen

416
00:19:27,519 --> 00:19:30,440
to you on this podcast. Let it be known.

417
00:19:30,519 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 3: I just made that bit married.

418
00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,640
Speaker 4: I made it better. I think mine was funnier.

419
00:19:35,839 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 1: I said the same thing.

420
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 2: It's even I who doesn't remember anything. He was like,

421
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:41,640
I'm pretty sure Mike just said this.

422
00:19:42,039 --> 00:19:44,839
Speaker 3: No, oh my god.

423
00:19:45,559 --> 00:19:50,400
Speaker 1: Wait, uh, Dan, do you do you remember when Mary

424
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,480
mary her thoughts on twenty twenty as a whole? You know,

425
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,599
we're all stuck at home. Oh god, damnit, I never

427
00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 2: The thing isn't working. So but yes, I do remember.

428
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,319
Speaker 1: No, like, hold on, like Mary, I think we were

429
00:20:05,319 --> 00:20:09,079
talking about twenty twenty and uh, you know you were

430
00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:12,759
just saying like you did. You're saying it wasn't great

431
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,119
in general. But uh but what what else?

432
00:20:17,319 --> 00:20:18,480
Speaker 3: Oh right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

433
00:20:19,279 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 4: Did you hear that love that pandemic? Love that pandemic?

434
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 5: What I I didn't say that, you did say that enthusiastics?

435
00:20:32,759 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 3: No, but like what did you truly.

436
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,079
Speaker 4: Think sove that pandemic?

437
00:20:36,279 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 1: Okay, well, let's move on in this podcastics health. I

438
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,440
don't ever want to talk about health or politics again.

439
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 2: I'm fine, although we're recording this one super early, so

440
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:47,839
I mean, if I do die in the next week

441
00:20:47,839 --> 00:20:52,480
and a half, it'll be pretty funny. I don't mean

442
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:55,039
that I'm fine.

443
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:55,400
Speaker 1: Mary.

444
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:56,880
Speaker 3: How are you feeling these days?

445
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 4: I feel fine, genuinely, like relatively, yeah, like I'm genuinely

446
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:03,720
physically fine.

447
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 5: I will say, like, I also got a little sick

448
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,519
because I just got back from packs and usually when

449
00:21:09,559 --> 00:21:12,160
you do a PAX, you're just probably gonna get the

450
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,400
pax pos. That is like a natural thing that happens.

451
00:21:16,039 --> 00:21:21,279
Speaker 4: So my uh as it as it happens.

452
00:21:21,359 --> 00:21:24,319
Speaker 5: I just recognized, maybe like three or five days ago

453
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,240
that I wasn't feeling super hot. But I beat it

454
00:21:27,279 --> 00:21:30,319
by sheer willpower this time, which is how I usually

455
00:21:30,759 --> 00:21:34,279
beat all sicknesses. I very rarely have to go to

456
00:21:34,279 --> 00:21:35,759
the doctor, and I always feel like if I.

457
00:21:35,799 --> 00:21:39,880
Speaker 4: Just rest and have soup, I can figure it out.

458
00:21:40,319 --> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 5: And the last time I got sick, I needed antibiotics

459
00:21:43,519 --> 00:21:44,759
and everything I was fucked up.

460
00:21:44,839 --> 00:21:46,279
Speaker 4: I was like a total mess bag.

461
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,799
Speaker 5: This time, I'm back to my usual, Like I just

462
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,039
beat it with willpower and like time, you know, like

463
00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:53,200
regular people.

464
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 1: You're like a Dennis in the Gang gets quarantined where

465
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:58,519
he's like, if I was sick, I would simply say,

466
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,119
sees break. God, Yeah, I.

467
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,079
Speaker 4: Usually fight it. I mean, I'm telling you I'm kind

468
00:22:04,079 --> 00:22:06,240
of notorious for it. And like some people call me

469
00:22:06,279 --> 00:22:08,680
patient zero because like I'm the kind of person will

470
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,880
be like my throat's a little scratchy on the way

471
00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,559
to like twitch con anyway, everybody have a good con.

472
00:22:14,519 --> 00:22:16,480
Speaker 5: And I'll just sit on the fucking plane and be like,

473
00:22:16,559 --> 00:22:19,559
I'm not sick, and I will I will will it

474
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,920
down into my body and I will I will work

475
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:24,480
and I will do my job, and I will do

476
00:22:25,319 --> 00:22:28,079
I will work like everybody else, you know, all the hours,

477
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,160
all the late nights, all the early mornings, and then

478
00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:33,079
when I get home, my body will implode because I

479
00:22:33,079 --> 00:22:33,920
have allowed it to.

480
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 4: I have been like, now, you can be sick, but

481
00:22:36,039 --> 00:22:36,759
I won't allow them.

482
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:41,559
Speaker 1: Now. I think that's a fairly common thing, Like, uh,

483
00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:44,400
your body recognizes you just genuinely you're not in like

484
00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,839
a safe place to be sick, So it waits until then.

485
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,880
Speaker 4: You body like you can't.

486
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 3: You can't be sick right now as soon as you

487
00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:52,559
walk in the door.

488
00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:54,799
Speaker 4: E three was no different. You just can't fucking be

489
00:22:54,839 --> 00:22:55,720
sick during E three.

490
00:22:55,799 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 5: Like, get your shit together, get it together, figure it out,

491
00:22:59,759 --> 00:23:02,440
it doesn't matter. Like yeah, like I'll like take cough

492
00:23:02,599 --> 00:23:04,680
drops or something like that or some kind of like

493
00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:06,559
minor medicine for headaches.

494
00:23:06,599 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 4: But like my ass is getting out there and I'm

495
00:23:08,519 --> 00:23:09,240
doing the thing.

496
00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 5: I know it's not right, especially by today's standards, where

497
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,119
you're really not supposed to like even come out of

498
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:17,759
the house if you're sick. But like there's just like

499
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:21,279
work stuff where I'm essentially like you're fine, just get

500
00:23:21,319 --> 00:23:23,559
over it, and my body actually does react to that,

501
00:23:23,599 --> 00:23:25,839
and it's just like Okay, no fever, like figure it out,

502
00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:26,920
like go do your job.

503
00:23:26,759 --> 00:23:29,559
Speaker 4: And then and then when I come home, I like

504
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:30,880
actually melt.

505
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,160
Speaker 2: Especially like when we all work from home, where it's

506
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:35,119
like I never really took sick days anyway, like when

507
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,480
I worked at an office, but like I cannot remember.

508
00:23:39,039 --> 00:23:40,799
I cannot remember the last time I took a certainly

509
00:23:40,799 --> 00:23:43,279
not in the last five years. And that's why I remember.

510
00:23:43,279 --> 00:23:44,839
Like when I was a game informer, there's someone who

511
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:46,960
like literally would take like two days off because like

512
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,240
I got a flu shot yesterday and my arm's kind

513
00:23:49,279 --> 00:23:51,160
of sore, and it's like that was an actual excuse,

514
00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:52,839
and I was like I want to kill you. Like

515
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,160
that is like I don't know if it's just like

516
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:57,839
Midwest like work ethic stuff where it's just like I

517
00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:01,160
just we're toxic, you know, I think we'd yeah.

518
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 4: Bad and it is very normal.

519
00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 5: To be able to be like I am sick, but

520
00:24:06,319 --> 00:24:10,839
I just I don't have that ability. My mind is like, no,

521
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:14,759
you get your ass up if I'm genuinely, like feverishly

522
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,920
fucking ill. And that happened a couple months ago. I

523
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,440
really was down for the count. I had to go

524
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,559
to a doctor and everything, and it was a mess.

525
00:24:22,759 --> 00:24:25,519
I took a I took an afternoon off.

526
00:24:26,279 --> 00:24:30,759
Speaker 4: I took one afternoon off to go. I went to

527
00:24:30,839 --> 00:24:34,000
an emergency room and got and got medicine, and then

528
00:24:34,039 --> 00:24:36,480
I sat in a hotel room and like stewed about it.

529
00:24:36,519 --> 00:24:37,839
And the next day I was like, I'm fine.

530
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,279
Speaker 2: I don't like getting medicine.

531
00:24:40,519 --> 00:24:43,519
Speaker 3: Don't you in the mirror you're weak?

532
00:24:43,799 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 4: Yeah I was. I was like slapping myself in front

533
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,240
of the mirror, like you get better.

534
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 5: I don't like it, and I want to be a

535
00:24:51,759 --> 00:24:53,319
part of the experience and be better.

536
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,319
Speaker 4: But I have to. I have to give myself the

537
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,440
ability and the flexibility to be sick, and we definitely

538
00:24:59,519 --> 00:25:01,599
have to give the flexibility to other people.

539
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,240
Speaker 2: To be oh yeah, yeah, you can't expect everyone to

540
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:05,920
be like weird about this, like we are, like I

541
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,119
guess with like I had COVID once and I took

542
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,720
time off for that, and I, uh, I have a pandemic.

543
00:25:12,079 --> 00:25:12,680
Speaker 4: God damn it.

544
00:25:14,559 --> 00:25:17,039
Speaker 2: I had a couple of the surgeries, like post surgery.

545
00:25:17,079 --> 00:25:18,359
Like if you count of those of sick days and

546
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,240
I've taken them for sure, but like for like a

547
00:25:20,279 --> 00:25:23,440
cold or something like that, like no way, you know, it's.

548
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:27,079
Speaker 4: Very very rare. Like I have been at twitch for

549
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:29,720
eight years. I don't think I could count on one

550
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,240
hand the amount of sick days I've taken. It never

551
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:37,359
fucking happens, and I definitely have been sick. When you

552
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:41,119
work from home, though, like you just pull up a

553
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:42,720
laptop next to the bed.

554
00:25:42,559 --> 00:25:46,640
Speaker 1: And you just yeah, I might be like if my

555
00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:48,519
notice it is totally stepped up, maybe I'll be like, oh,

556
00:25:48,559 --> 00:25:50,279
are you good for this podcast or whatever?

557
00:25:50,319 --> 00:25:52,799
Speaker 2: And I'll sit that one out. But like sure, email

558
00:25:52,839 --> 00:25:54,920
people and do that shit and play games.

559
00:25:55,039 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 5: You know, you can email, you can think about a

560
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,160
problem that you're solving.

561
00:26:00,279 --> 00:26:02,319
Speaker 2: But I think we're just tougher and better than everyone.

562
00:26:02,519 --> 00:26:05,559
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think jobs are easier than a lot of people.

563
00:26:05,599 --> 00:26:07,799
Speaker 2: Also that that's probably a big part of it.

564
00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 1: If I'm but like, yeah, if I was driving the

565
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,039
park left to the ups Factory, I would probably uh

566
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:18,440
not feel the pilots don't really have this same I'm

567
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,680
going to sit out my session of Doom the Dark

568
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:21,359
Ages today.

569
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 2: I got some sniffles.

570
00:26:25,279 --> 00:26:27,759
Speaker 1: I don't know how many demons I can quench if

571
00:26:27,799 --> 00:26:28,440
I don't.

572
00:26:29,519 --> 00:26:32,119
Speaker 2: I love quenching demons. I love punching demons.

573
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: Calls. I got it.

574
00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,599
Speaker 2: Ever, that is something we should always keep in mind

575
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,000
is that we have very different jobs than most people.

576
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,720
And it's maybe easy for us to say, but I

577
00:26:43,759 --> 00:26:47,640
don't know. Like Mike, you're always doing stuff. Mary, you're

578
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,920
always like I'm always doing stuff. Most of my stuff

579
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,559
involves just like talking to my friends on podcasts, whut

580
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,200
video games? So like, I don't think I have the

581
00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:55,599
hardest job of us three.

582
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,759
Speaker 4: No, I know you're the biggest joke of them all.

583
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 1: I think there he's a CEO.

584
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:02,759
Speaker 2: There's CEO.

585
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's a CEO.

586
00:27:05,759 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 4: College. Like, you can be a CEO of a bunch

587
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:12,559
of joke ship. You're still a CEO CCO giant.

588
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:13,799
Speaker 3: We're talking to you like that.

589
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 4: Make a company that's just one?

590
00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,240
Speaker 2: We have five worthless.

591
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can't all be CEO.

592
00:27:24,519 --> 00:27:27,799
Speaker 1: No, I'm don't have a CEO. I'm c CEO and

593
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,839
co owners watching someone play Rascal right now. You be

594
00:27:30,880 --> 00:27:33,039
careful who you're talking to CCO stuff.

595
00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm very aware of who I'm talking.

596
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:37,319
Speaker 1: I got this sniffles.

597
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:38,920
Speaker 3: I can't watch you play wescal that.

598
00:27:39,079 --> 00:27:41,519
Speaker 2: No, I say I do because I'm a tough, hard worker.

599
00:27:41,759 --> 00:27:45,119
Speaker 1: Oh I'm not right. Be impressed everyone. Hey dad, I'm

600
00:27:45,119 --> 00:27:48,160
gonna muscle through watching my friend play Wescal for the day.

601
00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 2: I'm going to be a big man about it. Yeah,

602
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:53,000
that's a good impression.

603
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,160
Speaker 1: I've told you this. There's a there's a real estate company.

604
00:27:57,279 --> 00:28:00,599
Like in my neck of the woods. It's spelled w

605
00:28:00,839 --> 00:28:04,039
E I c h e r T. Yeah. I'm not

606
00:28:04,079 --> 00:28:05,839
sure how it's supposed to be pronounced, but I always

607
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:06,559
see it whitecout.

608
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 2: That's like that was my last night when I was

609
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:10,640
a baby.

610
00:28:10,599 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 6: Ye.

611
00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:15,079
Speaker 1: Yeah, you changed it when you came of age. Yeah,

612
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,759
it's uh, it's uncomfortable to see around town. But yeah, no,

613
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:22,319
I don't like. I think it depends on your occupation.

614
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,759
I'd definitely say there are certain people who have to

615
00:28:24,799 --> 00:28:31,119
call in sick medical workers. Yes, of course, clearly not politicians.

616
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:34,279
They're definitely not saying it's the right way to be.

617
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:38,119
Speaker 2: I'm just saying like in are like Mary and I specifically, like,

618
00:28:38,319 --> 00:28:41,119
you know, we can do our jobs sick from home.

619
00:28:41,279 --> 00:28:43,240
Speaker 1: You know, my job mostly remote as well.

620
00:28:44,079 --> 00:28:45,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, some time.

621
00:28:46,599 --> 00:28:51,079
Speaker 4: I think that, uh, we do have a lot of leniencies.

622
00:28:51,279 --> 00:28:54,599
But I also think that because maybe we have those leniencies,

623
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:58,079
it makes it more important for me to always be available.

624
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:02,119
And that's sure good or bad, But I do feel

625
00:29:02,119 --> 00:29:02,640
the urge.

626
00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:04,519
Speaker 5: And I've always felt the urge in every job that

627
00:29:04,559 --> 00:29:06,599
I've ever had, even if it was like you know,

628
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,200
being a hostess or a sandwich artist a subway. I

629
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,559
was always like, I'm here, I'm going to do my best.

630
00:29:13,279 --> 00:29:15,000
I don't care how sick I am. I'm gonna make

631
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,240
these sandwich.

632
00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:17,599
Speaker 1: I'm going to come in.

633
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was me.

634
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,079
Speaker 2: You know what, You're a hero, Mary, let's hear it. Yeah,

635
00:29:24,119 --> 00:29:25,279
all right here.

636
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 5: I've always said that I'm a hero, and I'm really

637
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,599
glad that this podcast at least has one hero.

638
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. We need one collective us.

639
00:29:35,559 --> 00:29:37,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, one villain, one hero.

640
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:44,039
Speaker 1: We did politics, health, yeah, whatever the opposite of health is.

641
00:29:44,799 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 4: Let's do finances.

642
00:29:46,079 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 2: Oh sure, religion after that. Oh yeah, let's do religion first.

643
00:29:51,599 --> 00:30:00,839
I hate god, no finance. Invest in a little a

644
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,599
little stock, invested.

645
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:04,759
Speaker 1: A little stock I like to call giant bomb because

646
00:30:04,839 --> 00:30:07,440
I think the stocks going up, we shot back and

647
00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:08,240
we should go public.

648
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 2: That's a good idea, do you have.

649
00:30:09,279 --> 00:30:11,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be sick. I could be part owner and

650
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,599
then I could own Dan if I buy enough stocks.

651
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,759
We shouldn't go public. Oh, I would love to call

652
00:30:17,039 --> 00:30:18,880
board meetings. And it's just me at the end of

653
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:24,440
a long table. I don't agree with this video. You

654
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:30,799
did got a nice odd number right now. You Yeah,

655
00:30:30,799 --> 00:30:32,039
we don't know that's going to go yet.

656
00:30:32,119 --> 00:30:34,519
Speaker 2: It's just there's still so much stuff to do, which

657
00:30:34,519 --> 00:30:36,519

659
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,160
be all set up here a little after SGF maybe

660
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:45,079

661
00:30:45,079 --> 00:30:45,519

668
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,400
But short version is it's just been tremendous. The amount

Speaker 4: It's amazing. It's like cathartic and uh oh, so the

00:31:46,039 --> 00:31:48,720
season I was in ended, So we've we finished, we

685
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,359

686
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,759
Speaker 2: How many nice it? Yeah, it was like two.

687
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:55,799
Speaker 4: And a half months.

688
00:31:56,279 --> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you signed up two and a half months ago? Gotcha?

689
00:32:00,119 --> 00:32:02,759
Speaker 5: Because I thought maybe I qud or I didn't know

690
00:32:02,799 --> 00:32:04,960
if I was actually like into it. But I've signed

691
00:32:05,039 --> 00:32:08,279
up for a second season. Now I'm actually like I've decided.

692
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 4: I like it. It's I bought a ball, I have

693
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:14,359
a ball.

694
00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:18,400
Speaker 1: Get eight or ten? What do you say? Well, yeah,

695
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,160
that's a good one. Boys.

696
00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 5: I was told from Larry's ball shop that you want

697
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:31,440
to go heavy because it knocks the pins over. It's like,

698
00:32:32,279 --> 00:32:35,799
Larry's this crazy guy who has been I think he

699
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:36,680
must be coveted.

700
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,680
Speaker 4: There are bowler shops.

701
00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 5: There's not a lot of bowler like places to get

702
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,799
your ball drilled in Portland, you know what I mean.

703
00:32:44,839 --> 00:32:47,519
But there's a couple and most of them have like

704
00:32:48,079 --> 00:32:52,359
five to ten reviews, and Larry's has like hundreds and

705
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,480
hundreds of reviews. This dude has been doing this for

706
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:58,880
forty years. He is tried and tested. He's a bit

707
00:32:58,880 --> 00:33:05,759
of a firecracker when I can't yes testing. And he

708
00:33:05,759 --> 00:33:08,519
he's a strange man. His his desk was filled to

709
00:33:08,559 --> 00:33:11,000
the brim with papers. And the first thing he did

710
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,319
when I came in was he was like, have you

711
00:33:12,319 --> 00:33:13,960
filled out a paper? And I was like no, And

712
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:15,279
he's like, well you got a thille out And I

713
00:33:15,279 --> 00:33:16,359
was like, where are you going to put it?

714
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,599
Speaker 4: And he was like, with all the other papers, how

715
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:23,000
dare you? And I was like okay, and I filled.

716
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 5: It out and he put it on his giant desk

717
00:33:26,039 --> 00:33:27,640
of papers and he said what do you want and

718
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:29,759
I said, well, I already someone gave me a ball

719
00:33:30,079 --> 00:33:32,079
and I'd like to fill the holes and I'd like

720
00:33:32,119 --> 00:33:33,000
to redraw them.

721
00:33:32,839 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 4: With my fingers. And he was like, I bet you'd

722
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,400
like that, and I was like I would genuinely. And

723
00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,079
he was like, where's this guy?

724
00:33:41,319 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 5: He was giving me all this shit and I was like,

725
00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:44,480
that is what I would like and he was like

726
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,480
he was like, well, I can do it by next Tuesday.

727
00:33:47,519 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 4: And I was like that's a great deal.

728
00:33:48,759 --> 00:33:50,279
Speaker 5: And he was like, well then great, I'll see you

729
00:33:50,319 --> 00:33:53,519
next Tuesday. And then the next tuesday I came in

730
00:33:54,319 --> 00:33:56,319
and I said it's me. I'm here for my appointment

731
00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,160
and he said, are you Marty?

732
00:33:58,759 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 4: I said no, I'm married. I have Marty down for

733
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,200
your for disappointment.

734
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,400
Speaker 5: I said, I'm Mary and I wrote it down on

735
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:11,719
this piece of paper and he was like, I have

736
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,119
Marty and I said, well, then I am Marty for

737
00:34:14,199 --> 00:34:17,679
the entire one hour appointment. When he measured my fingers,

738
00:34:18,039 --> 00:34:19,559
I was Marty awesome.

739
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:21,519
Speaker 2: Nice, that's good, Yeah, Marty Kisch.

740
00:34:21,639 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 1: That works.

741
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:22,599
Speaker 4: Yeah.

742
00:34:22,639 --> 00:34:24,719
Speaker 1: And the people with those jobs, you need them to

743
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,920
be eccentric or else I don't trust them.

744
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,199
Speaker 3: There's someone here in Jersey.

745
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,039
Speaker 1: Back when I was in the dart league and people

746
00:34:31,079 --> 00:34:34,519
were really into their personal set of darts, there's a

747
00:34:34,559 --> 00:34:38,000
woman near here Dan like maybe Bonk has heard of

748
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,199
her at some point, I don't know, or you know

749
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:41,000
Bank's family.

750
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:45,559
Speaker 2: She's called the dart Whisperer. And you basically go and she's.

751
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 1: Got a dart board and you like you throw a dart,

752
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,599
and in that one throw, she could tell like what

753
00:34:50,679 --> 00:34:53,800
kind of stroke you have? Like what she she?

754
00:34:54,039 --> 00:34:54,360
Speaker 2: I don't.

755
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people expect her to coach you,

756
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,079
but she's like, I don't coach. I just observe and

757
00:34:59,119 --> 00:35:01,559
I react or something thing like that. And then she'll

758
00:35:01,599 --> 00:35:04,320
measure your arm. She'll look your hands eye like the

759
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,320
thumb to finger, the thumb to middle finger, and then

760
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,559
she'll design a set of darts that would work best

761
00:35:09,639 --> 00:35:10,280
with your throat.

762
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:12,760
Speaker 2: That's cool, Yeah, Like I.

763
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,199
Speaker 3: Want to be a specialty artisan for.

764
00:35:15,159 --> 00:35:17,320
Speaker 4: A person too.

765
00:35:17,679 --> 00:35:20,320
Speaker 5: There's something very interesting about that, isn't like that's all

766
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:20,719
they do.

767
00:35:21,039 --> 00:35:23,119
Speaker 4: Larry balls for forty years.

768
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:27,920
Speaker 1: What's the most specific sports paraphernalia you'd like to design?

769
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,280
Speaker 2: I was thinking like bowling, because I do like bowling,

770
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,639
and Mary, you've like activated me just talking about bowling again.

771
00:35:33,599 --> 00:35:35,440
I want to get like, you know, like King panhil

772
00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:37,880
Bill Murray has like his hand inside the ball, and

773
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,880
it's clear, could your Marty, could your guy do the

774
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:42,760
thing where like you could give him an object and

775
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,119
he would put it inside the ball.

776
00:35:44,599 --> 00:35:47,280
Speaker 4: I don't know. I've never asked him. He's so weird.

777
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,639
Speaker 5: I'm like a little afraid to ask him stuff because

778
00:35:49,679 --> 00:35:53,159
it usually like it just turns into these crazy tangents

779
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:54,719
for like hours.

780
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:58,199
Speaker 4: Sounds like you want like a custom resin ball where

781
00:35:58,199 --> 00:36:02,079
you're like putting weird objects into resin. He will drill

782
00:36:02,119 --> 00:36:02,760
any ball.

783
00:36:03,679 --> 00:36:06,679
Speaker 1: That's why I shop found it Larry's Pro Shop Bowling

784
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:07,800

Speaker 1: The dropdown for the contact contact us box just says feedback,

788
00:36:19,599 --> 00:36:21,119
that's not contact.

789
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,679
Speaker 4: He lessons he does.

791
00:36:27,519 --> 00:36:30,960

at five thirty, my first round of official bowling, and

793
00:36:36,119 --> 00:36:38,000

I have enough time?

796
00:36:41,639 --> 00:36:44,159
Speaker 4: And he said it's no problem.

797
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:49,880
Speaker 5: He measured my hand for like thirty minutes and it's

798
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,079
six and I was like, cool, so you're going to

799
00:36:53,199 --> 00:36:55,119

00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:08,760
three games so it took about two and a half hours.

822
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,960
I turned around and he was just sitting and watching

823
00:38:11,039 --> 00:38:13,119
me bowl, and I was like, Hey, how's it going, Larry?

824
00:38:13,159 --> 00:38:15,320
And he was like good. How do the holes feel?

825
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,280
And I was like they feel great?

826
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,559
Speaker 5: And he was like good, just making sure, just making

827
00:38:20,639 --> 00:38:22,880
sure that the ball meets your needs.

828
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:24,960
Speaker 4: And then he walked away. He watched me for like

829
00:38:25,079 --> 00:38:26,159
probably thirty minutes.

830
00:38:26,559 --> 00:38:28,559
Speaker 3: I was gonna ask, is it a comfortable ball?

831
00:38:29,159 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's very comfortable. I don't know a lot about

832
00:38:31,960 --> 00:38:33,000
balls and holes.

833
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,360
Speaker 1: You don't know if it was uncomfortable, like an uncomfortable

834
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,000
bowling ball does not feel right coming off those tips.

835
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:42,079
Speaker 4: It feels good in the hand. I feel like it

836
00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,000
has a good swing to it. And I got a

837
00:38:45,079 --> 00:38:47,920
good I got a good total that night, even though

838
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:48,960
it was a new ball, so I had to get

839
00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:50,960
adjusted to it. But I'm still learning, you guys.

840
00:38:51,039 --> 00:38:54,159
Speaker 5: So like my max is like lower than probably other

841
00:38:55,079 --> 00:38:58,519
Bowler League people's maxes. Like if I get one hundred

842
00:38:58,559 --> 00:39:02,199
and twenty score at the end, I'm like not too shabby.

843
00:39:02,519 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 4: Like I just I have low expectations for myself. So

844
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,039
just so everybody's aware.

845
00:39:07,079 --> 00:39:09,199
Speaker 2: Can we next time we're doing Game of the Year,

846
00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,480
whether it's here or elsewhere, can we all go bowling together?

847
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,679
Speaker 1: Can that be part of my love?

848
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:16,400
Speaker 4: That that would be so cool?

849
00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 2: Love bowling.

850
00:39:17,599 --> 00:39:19,559
Speaker 1: Bowling's out there with like roller blading of things I

851
00:39:19,599 --> 00:39:20,960
did when I was young that I want to do

852
00:39:21,079 --> 00:39:22,199
more now than I'm an adult.

853
00:39:22,920 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 2: If I rollerblade, that would immediately break so many bones.

854
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:27,159
And yeah, I couldn't do it as a kid, not

855
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,559
that way. I just don't have any balance at all.

856
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a it's a tough gig.

857
00:39:33,039 --> 00:39:34,760
Speaker 2: Biking, Yeah, I'm great of bikes.

858
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:39,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've created bikes. Biking good, Bowling tough.

859
00:39:40,119 --> 00:39:42,519
Speaker 5: The thing that I like about bowling, and the reason

860
00:39:42,559 --> 00:39:44,559
I've like decided that this is the sport for me

861
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:48,159
is that like it for now is that it doesn't

862
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:49,639
matter if I have a bad day.

863
00:39:49,840 --> 00:39:52,079
Speaker 4: I couldn't give a shit if I have a bad

864
00:39:52,559 --> 00:39:56,239
like round of bowling. It's just something to do. I'm

865
00:39:56,360 --> 00:39:58,840
drinking like a picture of beer while I do it.

866
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:00,360
But it gets me off my buck. But I'm not

867
00:40:00,440 --> 00:40:04,000
watching TV all night like I'm enjoying it. So it's silly,

868
00:40:04,079 --> 00:40:05,880
but it's it is meaningful now.

869
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,159
Speaker 1: Actually because it makes me want to do it.

870
00:40:08,960 --> 00:40:10,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's bold, let's bolt again.

871
00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,119
Speaker 2: It makes me want to do like a league like

872
00:40:12,199 --> 00:40:13,320
and then bowl together like.

873
00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:14,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, I could commit.

874
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,679
Speaker 3: You did a dart league, Mike, Yeah, and Hoboken people.

875
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:21,840
There's a lot of people.

876
00:40:22,079 --> 00:40:25,360
Speaker 1: So I was in the B League. Thankfully, I consider

877
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:27,360
myself pretty decent at darts. But I was in the

878
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:30,280
B League, and uh, there were people there. And it's

879
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,639
kind of cool because you represent a specific bar, so

880
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:36,079
you're away games or another bar just down the street.

881
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,360
I represented the bar you both have been to, Dan

882
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:42,199
you especially a eighth Street tavern at the time, not anymore,

883
00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:45,320
I don't, I haven't been there in years. But you'd

884
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,280
go to away games and other bars and certain bars

885
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,119
took it very seriously. And we were the B League,

886
00:40:50,559 --> 00:40:53,199
a league I found out later does not touch a

887
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,039
drop of alcohol when they're doing it.

888
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 4: They're they're in the zone.

889
00:40:56,599 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 5: We have bowlers that are like that too, and they

890
00:40:59,519 --> 00:41:01,360
they bowl and when they get a strike, I go,

891
00:41:01,519 --> 00:41:03,400
great job, and they don't look at me.

892
00:41:07,039 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 4: Not having it at all.

893
00:41:08,679 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 1: It should be fun.

894
00:41:09,679 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 2: It should be drinky, like if you're going if yeah,

895
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:12,920
that's that.

896
00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 5: I mean there's just there's people like that and every

897
00:41:15,840 --> 00:41:18,760
everything that take it a little too seriously.

898
00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:21,199
Speaker 4: I think that is par for the course.

899
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:24,519
Speaker 5: But I find it funny because I mean it's just

900
00:41:24,599 --> 00:41:27,320
a hobby, you know, It's just something you're enjoying.

901
00:41:27,639 --> 00:41:29,719
Speaker 4: It shouldn't It should not be that serious.

902
00:41:30,199 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 1: John Goodman from Bicklebowski just like, okay, settle down, dude,

903
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:33,519
like all line.

904
00:41:33,679 --> 00:41:36,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, we've had experiences like that a little bit where

905
00:41:36,519 --> 00:41:39,960
people have just like taken it really seriously. But I

906
00:41:40,039 --> 00:41:42,639
think it's funny when they get really upset because it's

907
00:41:43,079 --> 00:41:44,599
not that serious.

908
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:47,159
Speaker 1: I've said, people over things that don't warrant it, or

909
00:41:47,159 --> 00:41:48,239
it's pretty funny.

910
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:53,360
Speaker 4: That's the right reaction, like yeah, oh you're mad, Like

911
00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,320
bowling isn't good tonight, Like who cares?

912
00:41:57,639 --> 00:42:00,199
Speaker 1: Like it's it's a feeling I get when and it's

913
00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,519
like people are getting furious about something and like whatever

914
00:42:02,599 --> 00:42:04,679
the non controversy of the week is in video games

915
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,000
or whatever. It's like people getting like it's ruining their

916
00:42:07,039 --> 00:42:09,159
lives and they're making angry YouTube videos about it. It's

917
00:42:09,159 --> 00:42:11,079
like that's this is not a real problem.

918
00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:14,079
Speaker 5: We've lost the plot when the thing that you are

919
00:42:14,159 --> 00:42:17,280
supposed to enjoy brings you like an immense amount of pain,

920
00:42:17,440 --> 00:42:20,440
And like I'm talking to you Star Wars fans that

921
00:42:20,519 --> 00:42:23,440
are just like unable to enjoy something anymore.

922
00:42:23,519 --> 00:42:27,440
Speaker 2: And it's like Star Wars fans, wrestling fans, video game fans,

923
00:42:27,639 --> 00:42:31,199
fans of certain consoles and brands and developers, sports fans,

924
00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,119
sports fans, just fandom.

925
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,760
Speaker 1: Itself, like the no no, no, no no no. I

926
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,119
literally mean this as a concept. It's like being a

927
00:42:38,199 --> 00:42:41,079
fan of something can go very awry.

928
00:42:41,519 --> 00:42:44,159
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, I mean that's kind of always been

929
00:42:44,199 --> 00:42:46,400
the case. And I was thinking back to like Recess

930
00:42:46,480 --> 00:42:48,639
in the early nineties, and it's like, yeah, people were

931
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,800
heads about Superintendent per Second Genesis back then, our Sonic Verse, Mario,

932
00:42:52,159 --> 00:42:54,760
Mortal Kombat Verse, Street Fighter, but then the Internet happened,

933
00:42:54,760 --> 00:42:56,639
and it's like everyone's just louder and stupider about it.

934
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:57,199
Speaker 1: M hmm.

935
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,079
Speaker 5: I mean again, I think the right reaction, though, is

936
00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:03,239
to laugh about it. I mean, none of these things

937
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:05,960
are meant to be that serious, and life is too short,

938
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,920
I think to be really upset all the time. Like, Yes,

939
00:43:09,039 --> 00:43:11,920
I could take bowling really seriously, and I could get

940
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,239
mad at everybody who's a better bowler than me, and

941
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,280
get mad at myself when I don't bowl as good

942
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,639
as I want to. But I just think that life

943
00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:21,639
is better if I drink two pictures of beer and

944
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:22,559
kind of bowl.

945
00:43:22,679 --> 00:43:24,880
Speaker 1: Okay, you were on the right side of history, Mary,

946
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:25,519
thank you.

947
00:43:25,679 --> 00:43:26,800
Speaker 3: Minus the Nixon stuff.

948
00:43:27,920 --> 00:43:31,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and the and the airplane and the pandemic

949
00:43:31,480 --> 00:43:32,719
thing and the pandemic thing.

950
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:36,000
Speaker 4: I regret nothing. Everything I've done is right.

951
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:37,519
Speaker 2: Do you guys want to talk about video games?

952
00:43:38,039 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think we talked about Doom. We definitely talked

953
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,440
about doing The Dark Ages last episode. I have since

954
00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:49,079
played it quite a bit. I'm fourteen missions in. Do

955
00:43:49,199 --> 00:43:49,639
you like it?

956
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:50,360
Speaker 3: Out of twenty two?

957
00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:51,760
Speaker 1: Yeah? You like it?

958
00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 2: Rightm dooms Mandy.

00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:59,440
Speaker 3: Afew say, Okay, I like that game a lot.

960
00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:00,559
Speaker 1: Mary.

961
00:44:00,639 --> 00:44:03,599
Speaker 2: Oh, Mary, this is a this is a family broadcast.

962
00:44:04,000 --> 00:44:05,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mary, come on, oh, come on.

963
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:10,599
Speaker 3: Come on, oh, come on, you're fluffing me.

964
00:44:11,599 --> 00:44:13,239
Speaker 2: That's for the video podcast, folks.

965
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:16,639
Speaker 1: Yeah. I like dark ages a lot. It's good parry

966
00:44:16,679 --> 00:44:21,519
and that green stuff is good. That's good. The shield bash,

967
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:22,559
the shield.

968
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:26,079
Speaker 4: Throw love so enjoyable.

969
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,199
Speaker 1: I love every time you think you have a grasp

970
00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:30,360
on what's going to be in the next weapons drop,

971
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,800
all of a sudden it's a fucking flail and then

972
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,559
you're just smoking people with that.

973
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:36,880
Speaker 2: For that grenade launcher, it's just like a heavy ass

974
00:44:37,079 --> 00:44:38,239
spiked grenade balls.

975
00:44:38,400 --> 00:44:41,519
Speaker 4: Like, the grenade is fun. The grenade is fun. You

976
00:44:41,679 --> 00:44:44,360
might think to yourself, well, of course the grenade is fun,

977
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:48,719
and good news. You're right. The grenade is super fun.

978
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 1: Better than you would expect a grenade launcher to be.

979
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:58,159
The fucking the The skull crusher shoots the spread ye is.

980
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,000
I I'm hard pressed to think of a better It's

981
00:45:03,079 --> 00:45:05,719
not even a reload. It's just the animation it makes

982
00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:06,519
while you're shooting it.

983
00:45:06,679 --> 00:45:09,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, crunching, yeah yeah.

984
00:45:09,519 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 1: For those who haven't play, it's just the skulls sitting

985
00:45:11,559 --> 00:45:15,559
like right in between this press like vice in the

986
00:45:16,599 --> 00:45:19,639
pushes it through these like four blades that then crunch

987
00:45:19,679 --> 00:45:19,880
it up.

988
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,079
Speaker 3: And shoot pieces of skull it's awesome, and.

989
00:45:22,599 --> 00:45:25,639
Speaker 1: The skull of your dead enemies that technically could work

990
00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,840
with like a tibia, but no, it has to be

991
00:45:28,920 --> 00:45:29,840
skulls in the lore here.

992
00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,079
Speaker 4: The animators clearly had a feeld day with this, And

993
00:45:34,159 --> 00:45:37,599
I think something that we probably I don't think we

994
00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,599
talk about enough though, is like, did they obviously have

995
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,159
so much fun making this and you know it?

996
00:45:43,639 --> 00:45:47,360
Speaker 5: You know, the dude who animated this was just like

997
00:45:47,800 --> 00:45:50,800
so stoked to be like, look at how fucking sick

998
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:52,039
this looks the next.

999
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:52,960
Speaker 4: Day, and they did that with me.

1000
00:45:53,039 --> 00:45:53,519
Speaker 2: It was a woman.

1001
00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:56,840
Speaker 4: Dude is gender neutral?

1002
00:45:57,039 --> 00:45:59,880
Speaker 2: Sorry, yeah, there's a lot of feminine energy to Doom that.

1003
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,360
Speaker 3: I want it, gotcha, it's not doom.

1004
00:46:03,559 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, Doom is also gender neutral.

1005
00:46:07,360 --> 00:46:10,159
Speaker 1: I think dooms never mind, anyone is a dude.

1006
00:46:11,000 --> 00:46:13,559
Speaker 5: But what I'm just saying is is like, whoever like

1007
00:46:13,880 --> 00:46:16,480
animated this had a field day and they knew it.

1008
00:46:16,639 --> 00:46:18,679
And I think you can you can see the joy

1009
00:46:19,440 --> 00:46:22,320
in the people who worked on this game. I feel

1010
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:26,119
like the people who made this game this was a

1011
00:46:26,199 --> 00:46:28,599
labor of love and you can feel it. You can

1012
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:32,199
feel the joy in their experiences and how excited they

1013
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:36,000
were to have these like giant monsters in the background.

1014
00:46:35,639 --> 00:46:39,119
Speaker 4: Duking it out and like the uh, I don't know.

1015
00:46:39,599 --> 00:46:42,599
Speaker 5: All all of the constructions and the animations are are

1016
00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:44,559
really fun and whimsical, like they're.

1017
00:46:44,519 --> 00:46:46,719
Speaker 4: Wild and very doom.

1018
00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: Right.

1019
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,400
Speaker 4: Everything's just like a big explosion.

1020
00:46:49,119 --> 00:46:51,679
Speaker 2: At the levels where it's just you're just stomping on

1021
00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:53,119
bridges full of enemies and stuff.

1022
00:46:53,119 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: That's so fucking cool they give you. They give you

1023
00:46:55,599 --> 00:47:00,280
so many different ways to explode hordes of enemies at once. Yes, Yeah,

1024
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:03,800
whether it be throwing the shield at the overheated metal

1025
00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,559
which comes into play in boss fights where the armor

1026
00:47:06,599 --> 00:47:09,360
itself is overheated, or you're trying to overheat it yourself

1027
00:47:10,199 --> 00:47:12,559
then using the energy weapons. Yeah, we talked about this

1028
00:47:12,639 --> 00:47:13,119
last episode.

1029
00:47:13,199 --> 00:47:15,280
Speaker 2: Even the shield charge like takes out like five guys

1030
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:15,519
in here.

1031
00:47:15,679 --> 00:47:20,840
Speaker 1: Yeah. And I will say, like, I think I agree

1032
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:22,320
with what you guys are saying last time, not the

1033
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:23,639
but words in your mouth, Marry, I think it was

1034
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:24,679
you more than Dan.

1035
00:47:25,519 --> 00:47:27,079
Speaker 3: The Dragon stuff are super cool.

1036
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,079
Speaker 1: It's like, I like the structure of the first Dragon

1037
00:47:30,119 --> 00:47:33,199
mission where it reminds me of the Halo mission in

1038
00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:37,880
Halo two and three where you're going between points in

1039
00:47:38,079 --> 00:47:42,960
like either the Hornet or a Pelican and you're disembarking

1040
00:47:43,039 --> 00:47:45,599
and going into these ships. It's a really cool mission structure. Overall,

1041
00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:47,840
the Dragon stuff just feels more like a one off

1042
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:49,039
set piece.

1043
00:47:49,559 --> 00:47:52,159
Speaker 2: Not one off literally, but like fourteen missions in have

1044
00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,159
you done the Dragon more than once? Twice?

1045
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,760
Speaker 1: Now? Okay, so it might not be fourteen, but for

1046
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,719
reference sake, I've done the Dragon twice. It does feel

1047
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:03,000
more like a tact on thing, not tact on, Like

1048
00:48:03,039 --> 00:48:04,760
they clearly put a lot of thought and time into it.

1049
00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,519
And yeah, I think the coolest kill animation in the

1050
00:48:07,559 --> 00:48:10,199
game is when you open up the Titan's mouth and

1051
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:13,559
breathe fire into his bargains. Yeah, and then he's like

1052
00:48:13,679 --> 00:48:15,920
ah and that he explodes. It's the coolest thing I've

1053
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:16,639
ever seen in my life.

1054
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,599
Speaker 5: They love shoving things in people's throats too, Like, there's

1055
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,559
multiple ones of that that's There's not just the fire one.

1056
00:48:22,599 --> 00:48:24,360
There's also one where I think you like have a

1057
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:26,599
grid eight or something and you shove that in their

1058
00:48:26,679 --> 00:48:28,199
throats to kill a thing.

1059
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I agree, kill.

1060
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,760
Speaker 4: Me you're fucked, Yeah you can, you can undo.

1061
00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:36,440
Speaker 1: I do think.

1062
00:48:38,519 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 3: It's funny. I haven't played Eternal in a while.

1063
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:43,079
Speaker 1: I played it I think twice, and I came around

1064
00:48:43,119 --> 00:48:44,400
on it a lot more of the second time I

1065
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,400
played it, enjoyed it quite a bit, and especially after

1066
00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:50,159
going back to twenty sixteen, which twenty sixteen was so

1067
00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,400
clean in the loop of all right, you chang saw guys.

1068
00:48:53,679 --> 00:48:55,760
I might be fucking this up, but generally speaking, you

1069
00:48:55,880 --> 00:48:59,519
chain saw guys to get AMMO, you do melee kills

1070
00:48:59,559 --> 00:49:00,039
to get more.

1071
00:49:00,119 --> 00:49:02,599
Speaker 2: Health chan.

1072
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:05,760
Speaker 3: And then there's one more to give you chains off fields.

1073
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:10,039
Speaker 1: So is this really tight, like infinity loop whatever you

1074
00:49:10,079 --> 00:49:12,639
want to call it, do Eternal start blowing that up

1075
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:14,840
in several ways where you got so many options that

1076
00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,639
it got a bit overwhelming. Yes, I would actually say

1077
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:21,559
Dark Ages kind of corrects that a bit. I stepped

1078
00:49:21,559 --> 00:49:23,239
away from it for a few days to go to Montreal.

1079
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,320
I started it and did a few missions. I will

1080
00:49:25,360 --> 00:49:27,239
say this is not the easiest shooter to go back

1081
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:30,039
to because of how many options you have. It's not

1082
00:49:30,079 --> 00:49:32,760
a knock on the game. It's not like it didn't

1083
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,679
make me take a five day break, but it is

1084
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,239
it's like, oh, right, Oka, I'm gonna throw my shield

1085
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,480
at them because they're superheated. And that's the thing I

1086
00:49:42,559 --> 00:49:45,480
was gonna say, the enemy hordes I don't love in

1087
00:49:45,679 --> 00:49:48,280
the composition, and like now I'm thinking like dark souls.

1088
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,239
Speaker 3: Wise, it too often feels.

1089
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:53,760
Speaker 2: So clean in that. So here's the line five energy.

1090
00:49:53,559 --> 00:49:55,840
Speaker 1: Shields here, all right, I'm gonna throw that. It's gonna

1091
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:58,760
kill the other energy shield guys. I think Eternal especially

1092
00:49:59,039 --> 00:50:01,960
felt really organic, where there's several different kinds of demons

1093
00:50:02,039 --> 00:50:04,679
rushing me from different angles. Now it's like overheated shields,

1094
00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:06,639
energy shields. Oh this guy that are going to do

1095
00:50:06,679 --> 00:50:08,320
the green attacks, I gotta get ready to parry that.

1096
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,679
It feels a bit to Arcadie, and I feel I

1097
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,599
realize I just said that a doom game feels to Arcadie.

1098
00:50:14,639 --> 00:50:15,320
Speaker 3: That's a dumb.

1099
00:50:15,639 --> 00:50:18,360
Speaker 1: Criticism they're supposed to I never really considered it, Arcadie.

1100
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:20,559
You know, it feels a bit too artificial.

1101
00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:22,840
Speaker 3: And the end, like the the s, it just.

1102
00:50:22,840 --> 00:50:25,280
Speaker 2: Seems kind of like by the numbers and that like, Okay,

1103
00:50:25,360 --> 00:50:27,440
there's that shield line. Now I do this, and now

1104
00:50:27,519 --> 00:50:28,039
here's this thing.

1105
00:50:28,079 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 4: I do this.

1106
00:50:28,679 --> 00:50:29,840
Speaker 2: That's a better way of putting it. That's what I

1107
00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:30,440
was trying to say.

1108
00:50:30,519 --> 00:50:34,000
Speaker 1: It just feels I almost feel paint by numbers when

1109
00:50:34,039 --> 00:50:36,119
I jump into, like come off a cliff and there's

1110
00:50:36,159 --> 00:50:37,719
a fight right in front of me. I'm like, all right,

1111
00:50:37,719 --> 00:50:40,440
we'll take these guys out more out of obligation. They're

1112
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,199
not part of this puzzle I'm trying to solve, like

1113
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:46,880
Doom Eternal did. But I do appreciate the balance between

1114
00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:47,800
melee and range.

1115
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:50,559
Speaker 2: So you're saying Doom sixteen is more of a Jackson

1116
00:50:50,679 --> 00:50:53,199
Pollock of violence, where this is more of a Bob Ross.

1117
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,360
Is that what you're saying. I'm sorry, I'm using art

1118
00:50:55,440 --> 00:50:56,239
art references again.

1119
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:58,440
Speaker 1: I know that's my thing, but yeah, that's a good

1120
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,960
way to put it. I would say do Maternal was

1121
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:06,159
like the Monette. Oh, and then I'd say this is

1122
00:51:08,400 --> 00:51:11,519
more of a Mike Mike being character wines. Okay, let's

1123
00:51:11,519 --> 00:51:14,679
say Doom twenty sixteen was why did I ask for this?

1124
00:51:15,599 --> 00:51:19,519
Doom twenty sixteen was more of like a like a

1125
00:51:19,639 --> 00:51:22,800
premier cruise shabilee, really good, you know what you're gonna get,

1126
00:51:23,079 --> 00:51:27,280
Like just you know what you want is there in spades.

1127
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,400
It's not trying to be something it's not. I would

1128
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,320
say Doom Maternal almost to the to the Shabbie. The

1129
00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:35,840
premier CRUCIBLEE of Doom twenty sixteen was more of this,

1130
00:51:36,079 --> 00:51:39,400
like Condrew, kind of like Viigne Marsan Roussan Blend. It's

1131
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:41,679
like it's doing a lot, it's in your face, it's

1132
00:51:41,719 --> 00:51:43,639
coming out of you. And then dark Age is almost

1133
00:51:43,679 --> 00:51:46,440
like a correction there. It's like, oh, it was like

1134
00:51:46,519 --> 00:51:48,360
a little bit too much oak in this Conjrew. I think,

1135
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:50,119
I think we're gonna scale back a bit and make

1136
00:51:50,159 --> 00:51:52,119
it a bit more formulaic, but then they just end

1137
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:55,199
up with like this, this this really like this this

1138
00:51:55,639 --> 00:51:58,400
reserve Pinogriggio from alto Adage, And I'm not really sure

1139
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:00,360
where I stand with it, because it's delicious, don't get

1140
00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:01,960
me wrong, I just don't know if I'm going to

1141
00:52:02,039 --> 00:52:03,519
go back to it night after night, do you know

1142
00:52:03,599 --> 00:52:04,000
what I mean?

1143
00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:06,239
Speaker 2: I mean, Mary and I were going to respond, but

1144
00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:07,800
I could see it in both of our faces that

1145
00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:10,679
you just said everything we were gonna So yeah, yeah,

1146
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:16,800
now that is fun. I continually just want to be

1147
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:18,719
playing it when I'm not, which is like my sign

1148
00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,760
of a good game. There's not a lot of friction there.

1149
00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:22,440
It's just like, you know, I like the fact that

1150
00:52:22,559 --> 00:52:24,360
like there are secrets and things, but it's easy enough

1151
00:52:24,360 --> 00:52:25,559
to kind of like look at the map and just

1152
00:52:25,679 --> 00:52:27,519
you know, I'll go figure out how to open that thing.

1153
00:52:28,960 --> 00:52:31,119
Speaker 1: This more than the other two games, I'm having trouble

1154
00:52:31,159 --> 00:52:34,800
with some of these collectibles. Maybe maybe I'm like, again,

1155
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:36,679
maybe it's a by virtue of me stepping away for

1156
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:40,239
a few days. There's certain things I'm like, I don't

1157
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,079
know what they want me to do with this door,

1158
00:52:43,119 --> 00:52:45,400
and I'm trying the shield slam, I'm trying the shield throw,

1159
00:52:45,559 --> 00:52:48,840
I'm trying the I'm looking around for the flesh statues

1160
00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:52,280
that catch your shield and launch you. And maybe I'm

1161
00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:54,760
just not like pouring over every nook and cranny enough,

1162
00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:57,440
which is possible because you know those games.

1163
00:52:57,400 --> 00:53:00,280
Speaker 5: A lot of times it's like a hole. Like every

1164
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:02,599
time I go to a door and they're.

1165
00:53:02,079 --> 00:53:06,119
Speaker 4: Showing they're showing me like some fucking thing that I

1166
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:09,280
want behind a wall. It's not to get in that wall.

1167
00:53:09,519 --> 00:53:14,800
It's if there's a hole somewhere or drop down one

1168
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:17,679
hundred percent. It's usually like there's a small little section.

1169
00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:20,840
What I've also found that I just like, maybe this

1170
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:24,280
is like nostalgia, but this game a lot if once

1171
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:27,920
you enter an area, turn around. It would be amazed

1172
00:53:28,159 --> 00:53:31,119
how often they have hid something behind you when you

1173
00:53:31,679 --> 00:53:34,519
enter a new space. And I think that's so cute

1174
00:53:34,599 --> 00:53:37,599
and so indicative of like a classic game design, which

1175
00:53:37,719 --> 00:53:41,280
just like explore dude, like get in there, like look around.

1176
00:53:41,519 --> 00:53:45,199
Speaker 5: I've really enjoyed all the little secrets that I found.

1177
00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:47,840
It makes me feel really special and I don't feel

1178
00:53:47,880 --> 00:53:50,199
like I have to find them, which is also really nice.

1179
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:51,719
I miss them all the time, you know, at the

1180
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:53,000
end of the level, and I'll tell you how much

1181
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,800
shit you miss and I'm never like, oh damn it,

1182
00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:57,800
I really needed that to get through this level. Like

1183
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:01,320
I'm fine either way. I feel great when you get

1184
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:01,719
the money.

1185
00:54:02,079 --> 00:54:04,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Like I don't feel like I'm hurting it

1186
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:05,760
if I like, oh I didn't get everything there, I

1187
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:07,679
can't afford this upgrade, Like I feel like I've been

1188
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:09,039
upgrading at a good clip. You know.

1189
00:54:09,559 --> 00:54:14,360
Speaker 4: They put the gold bars also as secret finders.

1190
00:54:14,519 --> 00:54:15,599
Speaker 2: Most of them are Ye.

1191
00:54:16,199 --> 00:54:19,400
Speaker 4: If you see gold bars up a staircase, like that's

1192
00:54:19,440 --> 00:54:22,440
you're in, Like that's a secret like and it's so funny,

1193
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:26,039
like sometimes you'll just be like, oh, he candy, oop,

1194
00:54:26,079 --> 00:54:29,440
he candy, and you're just like following this very obvious trail,

1195
00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:31,320
and then I walk into a door and it's like

1196
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:34,519
a secret discovered, and there's a guy who's like, we

1197
00:54:34,639 --> 00:54:37,760
can't stay here, and they're having some like generic audio

1198
00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,119
going on. It's just like, well, this isn't too much

1199
00:54:40,159 --> 00:54:42,480
of a secret, guys, but God, love you for letting

1200
00:54:42,599 --> 00:54:46,079
me feel like I'm very smart by following these gold

1201
00:54:46,239 --> 00:54:49,159
bars into this very obvious area.

1202
00:54:50,079 --> 00:54:52,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. I will also say I've heard some people say

1203
00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,000
there's too much story for them in a Doom game.

1204
00:54:55,639 --> 00:54:58,480
There's not. There's I don't know what the last time

1205
00:54:58,639 --> 00:55:00,679
someone played Doom Eternal was there. There's some stuff going

1206
00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:02,840
on there. Even Doom twenty sixteen they had those two

1207
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:06,239
main villains, like, there's definitely a bit more here. What

1208
00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:08,039
they're trying to do with the characters, and honestly reminds

1209
00:55:08,039 --> 00:55:10,280
me of Gears of War and the vibes of what's happening.

1210
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:11,840
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1211
00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:13,159
Speaker 3: It's it doesn't overstay.

1212
00:55:13,159 --> 00:55:14,000
Speaker 1: It's welcome to me.

1213
00:55:14,159 --> 00:55:15,960
Speaker 2: It's it gets annoying because, like you know, I'm not

1214
00:55:16,119 --> 00:55:18,800
a big story guy in games. It bugs me if

1215
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:20,400
it's like in the middle of the mission, if it

1216
00:55:20,519 --> 00:55:22,239
was taking a break, Like every time I enter a

1217
00:55:22,320 --> 00:55:23,760
new area where it's like, oh, here's a cut scene

1218
00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:26,719
I gotta wait for that's a metal year thing. But

1219
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:29,719
like they're longish levels, so you know, I could be

1220
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:33,360
playing for thirty forty minutes before an in between level

1221
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:35,079
cut scene. At that point I'm fine to set my

1222
00:55:35,079 --> 00:55:36,639
controller down and check my phone for a second. I

1223
00:55:36,639 --> 00:55:39,639
don't know, like none of them are super long or anything.

1224
00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:42,760
I yeah, it has not bothered me at all. Yeah, no,

1225
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:46,960
I sorry, go ahead. Well, I was gonna say playing

1226
00:55:47,039 --> 00:55:48,639
it in you know a lot of Doom talk lately,

1227
00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,559
Mike Manatti was talking about recently playing the Doom one

1228
00:55:51,639 --> 00:55:54,280
and two, the night Dive remix that recently came out,

1229
00:55:54,559 --> 00:55:55,760
and I was like, oh, you know what, I'm kind

1230
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:57,280
of in the mood for that. So I did download

1231
00:55:57,519 --> 00:55:59,599
Doom one and two I think came out like in

1232
00:55:59,639 --> 00:56:01,639
the last six months or something like that, and sure enough,

1233
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,320
they do incredible remakes and everything. Oh yeah, system Shock

1234
00:56:05,679 --> 00:56:07,320
the thing. The thing was really good.

1235
00:56:07,559 --> 00:56:09,840
Speaker 3: They're like they're becoming they're like the new Blue Point

1236
00:56:10,199 --> 00:56:10,920
with that stuff.

1237
00:56:11,159 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 1: They're killing it to discredit Blue Point, but like night

1238
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:16,159
Time's kind of the one that's hot right now. Yeah.

1239
00:56:16,320 --> 00:56:18,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, And they're really nailing with the Doom thing, Like

1240
00:56:18,079 --> 00:56:19,559
you know, you can have it be like the clean,

1241
00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:21,480
you know, more modern HUD, or you can make it

1242
00:56:21,559 --> 00:56:23,679
look like all that chunky doss font and everything. So

1243
00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:25,400
I went just old with everything. It's like they have

1244
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:27,360
a whole remixed soundtrack and put it on.

1245
00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 1: I'm like, man, this is fucking This remixed soundtrack is

1246
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,320
incredible with like you know, like real you know, guitar

1247
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:33,119
music and stuff.

1248
00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:34,760
Speaker 2: But then I just switched back to the MIDI and

1249
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:36,400
it's like, eh, kind of just want to hear the

1250
00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,360
original Doom music. This is still really fucking good.

1251
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:41,159
Speaker 1: That game is still very fun for being one of

1252
00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,159
the first FPS games, Like that's it's crazy that it

1253
00:56:44,199 --> 00:56:48,159
holds up. I have never played Doom three. I never

1254
00:56:48,199 --> 00:56:50,079
really did either. It got kind of ravaged in the

1255
00:56:50,119 --> 00:56:52,360
reviews back in the day. I you know, I the

1256
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:54,400
most I saw of it. Tim Terry was playing it

1257
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,039
when I lived in their house for that month.

1258
00:56:58,000 --> 00:56:58,559
Speaker 3: He was playing that.

1259
00:56:58,840 --> 00:57:00,679
Speaker 1: He finished Resumeal four and he was doing all the

1260
00:57:00,800 --> 00:57:03,480
like the hardest ship to do in Resume four, and

1261
00:57:03,559 --> 00:57:05,199
then I think he jumped at Doom three to show

1262
00:57:05,280 --> 00:57:08,079
me almost like survival horror ish.

1263
00:57:08,559 --> 00:57:11,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, a lot of weird stuff like computer interfaces and

1264
00:57:11,679 --> 00:57:13,880
you know, a lot of like puzzles on screens and

1265
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:15,519
things like. I've seen enough of it where it's like,

1266
00:57:15,679 --> 00:57:18,119
this doesn't feel like the Doom I'm used to. But

1267
00:57:18,519 --> 00:57:20,719
I feel like there's been a reevaluation recently where some

1268
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:21,960
people kind of come around on it.

1269
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:24,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to go back and try it out. Yeah.

1270
00:57:24,800 --> 00:57:27,840
Between that, it's it's nice that I feel like Doom

1271
00:57:28,159 --> 00:57:33,360
the reboot. The franchise has just maintained its momentum since

1272
00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:40,760
it got rebooted. Wolfenstein, though, and I loved new Blood. No, no, no, no, no,

1273
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:40,960
no no.

1274
00:57:41,119 --> 00:57:41,599
Speaker 2: Old Blood.

1275
00:57:41,599 --> 00:57:43,519
Speaker 1: I did not like new Blood was the co opera.

1276
00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:47,639
Old Blood was the DLC for the first was the

1277
00:57:47,719 --> 00:57:51,199
second game? Which I loved new Blood or Young Blood?

1278
00:57:51,679 --> 00:57:58,199
I I really you know, I think Arcane a lot

1279
00:57:58,239 --> 00:58:01,519
of stuff I don't like about that game. Is there

1280
00:58:01,559 --> 00:58:06,119
a new Wolfenstein on the Jones? Oh?

1281
00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:08,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, machine Games in Sweden. That's what they did.

1282
00:58:08,599 --> 00:58:13,760
Speaker 1: Okay, so Wolfenstein's not happening soon. But I mean, what's

1283
00:58:13,840 --> 00:58:19,440
the difference between what nazis Oh gotcha? Oh yeah, They're

1284
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:21,360
they're always killing Nazis in their games. That's a given.

1285
00:58:22,599 --> 00:58:24,719
Speaker 2: It's a different vibe to it, for sure. Oh yeah,

1286
00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:27,440
that Wolfenstein was way more just gleeful violence and just

1287
00:58:27,559 --> 00:58:29,760
wild story things where it's like I feel Indie was very,

1288
00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:31,880
very faithful to the vibe of Indy.

1289
00:58:32,159 --> 00:58:34,199
Speaker 1: I feel the need to remind you too, And I

1290
00:58:34,239 --> 00:58:38,880
guess people listening that Indiana Jones is eligible for any

1291
00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,079
awards we might want to nominate it for this coming

1292
00:58:42,159 --> 00:58:44,880
year because we we went I think a week like

1293
00:58:44,920 --> 00:58:46,639
a few days after it released, a few days after

1294
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:49,159
the reviews went up, a few days after we did that, definitely.

1295
00:58:50,159 --> 00:58:53,719
Speaker 3: But yeah, no dark Ages. I'm digging. I'm actually kind

1296
00:58:53,719 --> 00:58:54,119
of glad.

1297
00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:56,119
Speaker 1: I don't know what more they would have done if

1298
00:58:56,159 --> 00:58:59,199
they just kept going same timeline, whatever you want to

1299
00:58:59,199 --> 00:59:01,480
say for after Eternal, I'm sure they would have figured

1300
00:59:01,519 --> 00:59:03,519
it out. They're good at that stuff. But dark A

1301
00:59:03,679 --> 00:59:07,840
just feels pretty new. I like the balance between it's

1302
00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:10,519
not just melee and ranged. I like that they've embraced

1303
00:59:10,519 --> 00:59:14,280
the idea of defense, which I did not think I

1304
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,000
would want in, you know, in a series known for

1305
00:59:17,199 --> 00:59:19,880
like their whole philosophy is always moved forward and keep

1306
00:59:19,960 --> 00:59:25,119
killing stuff and be aggressive. They somehow have maintained that,

1307
00:59:26,280 --> 00:59:29,719
but also like propelled it with defense and melee stuff,

1308
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:31,119
which is pretty impressive.

1309
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:35,519
Speaker 2: Almost more offense than it is defense half the time,

1310
00:59:35,559 --> 00:59:35,679
you know.

1311
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:37,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's when I'm fighting like a I don't know

1312
00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:39,480
what's the enemy. You see all the time, the big

1313
00:59:39,639 --> 00:59:43,199
dudes with the double arm cannon flame role what they're called.

1314
00:59:43,559 --> 00:59:45,519
It's it's when you're fighting them. It's like they kind

1315
00:59:45,559 --> 00:59:48,079
of if you really you're fighting a tougher one with armor.

1316
00:59:48,519 --> 00:59:51,480
They really require you to use a lot of the

1317
00:59:51,519 --> 00:59:53,800
tools at your disposal because it's like, oh, they'll do

1318
00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:55,679
the ground pound, which you could parry because it's green,

1319
00:59:56,039 --> 00:59:57,519
but then they do the flames. Would you have to

1320
00:59:57,599 --> 01:00:00,199
block if you don't want to take any damage? Of

1321
01:00:00,239 --> 01:00:01,239
course you can or dodge.

1322
01:00:01,320 --> 01:00:03,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, so.

1323
01:00:04,679 --> 01:00:07,480
Speaker 1: I'm really liking that game. That's where my I'm only

1324
01:00:07,599 --> 01:00:09,760
mid game right now, I'm past the midpoint. I think

1325
01:00:09,760 --> 01:00:12,159
there's twenty two missions. I'm at fourteen fifteen.

1326
01:00:12,519 --> 01:00:14,360
Speaker 5: It's pretty clear, right, It like even gives you like

1327
01:00:14,400 --> 01:00:17,440
a top like when you're finished, which I was just

1328
01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:19,119
gonna say, I really like that.

1329
01:00:19,239 --> 01:00:22,800
Speaker 4: The game says we have twenty two chapters. Enjoy them.

1330
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:25,960
It takes out some of the anxiety of like how

1331
01:00:26,159 --> 01:00:26,679
far is it?

1332
01:00:26,760 --> 01:00:27,079
Speaker 2: How much?

1333
01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:28,440
Speaker 4: How much longer do I have?

1334
01:00:28,599 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 5: I get to enjoy each chapter. I know where I'm

1335
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,719
at in the process, and I'm enjoying the ride. I mean,

1336
01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,480
I think it's a really well designed game. I think

1337
01:00:36,519 --> 01:00:41,159
it's modern to tell your audience how long they have left.

1338
01:00:41,280 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 4: That is neat and I like it.

1339
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,239
Speaker 1: The last thing I'll say that they're so good at

1340
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:54,199
like communicating what the game is doing. So anytime you

1341
01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:56,639
get like a hint of a new upgrade, you know

1342
01:00:56,760 --> 01:00:59,880
exactly how it's going to change the game. Like they

1343
01:01:00,079 --> 01:01:01,760
show you, Okay, here's how the shield works, here's the

1344
01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:03,800
cool shit you could do with it. The moment, all

1345
01:01:03,840 --> 01:01:06,320
of a sudden, it's just you get a chainsaw blade

1346
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:08,320
around the edge. You're like, oh fuck, I get I

1347
01:01:08,440 --> 01:01:10,159
get exactly how this is going to change the game.

1348
01:01:10,199 --> 01:01:12,119
And then of course they fuck with those expectations. But

1349
01:01:12,239 --> 01:01:15,119
like they're almost like inviting you along for their riot.

1350
01:01:15,199 --> 01:01:17,760
They're like, you're right there in the co pilot seat

1351
01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:20,000
where you think you are. But then they do stuff

1352
01:01:20,079 --> 01:01:21,920
with the new tools you're getting. We're like, oh no,

1353
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:24,000
I've just been a passenger this whole time they're piloting

1354
01:01:24,079 --> 01:01:24,440
this whole thing.

1355
01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:25,079
Speaker 3: It's great.

1356
01:01:25,360 --> 01:01:26,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, like the shield, it's like, I feel like it.

1357
01:01:27,119 --> 01:01:29,719
It's so much more of a fun addition than like,

1358
01:01:29,800 --> 01:01:32,239
you know, I like the flamethrower. I like the kind

1359
01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:34,760
of grapple shotgun thing and eternal but like, I don't know,

1360
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:36,679
this feels like more of a core part of the

1361
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:38,639
game rather than like I'll switch to the shotgun and

1362
01:01:38,679 --> 01:01:39,400
do the grapple thing.

1363
01:01:39,559 --> 01:01:40,719
Speaker 1: Like I'm loving it.

1364
01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:45,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, they had fun making this and it shows, and

1365
01:01:45,239 --> 01:01:47,679
I think that that is one of the reasons why

1366
01:01:47,719 --> 01:01:51,440
we're having so much fun playing it. And I'm excited

1367
01:01:51,559 --> 01:01:54,440
for this new era where Doom is not only relevant,

1368
01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:57,360
but it's something we really look forward to. Like I

1369
01:01:57,519 --> 01:01:59,840
get excited when these are coming out because I know

1370
01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:01,599
they're going to be fun now, Like I know they're

1371
01:02:01,599 --> 01:02:02,119
going to be good.

1372
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:05,280
Speaker 2: I just love it when you know games from my

1373
01:02:05,519 --> 01:02:09,360
childhood are relevant and good and not just a nostalgia act,

1374
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:14,599
you know, Like I look at Mario Zelda, Mario Kart, Doom.

1375
01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,039
There's a recent one. I think about Mortal kmbat all

1376
01:02:18,079 --> 01:02:18,280
the time.

1377
01:02:18,360 --> 01:02:20,320
Speaker 1: Mortal Kombat, I feel like, is such a fucking great

1378
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,239
example of that because it's like it is still so

1379
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,239
true to what it's been since the early nineties. It's

1380
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:28,559
been Ed Boone at the Helm the entire time, through

1381
01:02:28,559 --> 01:02:30,639
all the ups and downs. It has evolved, it has

1382
01:02:30,679 --> 01:02:33,480
taken risks, it's done weird things, but it's been Mortal

1383
01:02:33,519 --> 01:02:36,440
Kombat through and through, and I just I really really

1384
01:02:36,599 --> 01:02:38,559
love that because that was such an important series to

1385
01:02:38,599 --> 01:02:40,400
me as a kid, and just every time there's a

1386
01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:42,000
new Mortal kmbat, it's like, god damn, they are still

1387
01:02:42,039 --> 01:02:43,960
fucking do same with Mario Kart. Mario Kart World is

1388
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,480
about to come out very soon, and it's like, holy shit,

1389
01:02:46,599 --> 01:02:49,159
from some of my earlies, childhood memories playing that game

1390
01:02:49,199 --> 01:02:51,719
with my dad, Mario Kart has never left my life,

1391
01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:52,679
and it's never just been it.

1392
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:54,599
Speaker 2: It's not just a nostalgia thing. It's not like, oh,

1393
01:02:54,639 --> 01:02:56,440
I'm playing Earthworm Gym because I played it when I

1394
01:02:56,559 --> 01:02:59,360
was ten. It's like, no, Mario Kart's still a fucking

1395
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:03,360
force to be reckoned. With ninety six tracks you can play.

1396
01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:05,920
It's after the DLC and the Deluxe Edition. It's crazy.

1397
01:03:06,159 --> 01:03:09,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, It's like people like Ed Boone, that's so fucking impressive.

1398
01:03:09,719 --> 01:03:11,880
Not to just credit the series with just him, but

1399
01:03:12,039 --> 01:03:14,800
obviously he's the head of the snake there. It's like

1400
01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:18,079
for him to stay in touch that much with video games,

1401
01:03:18,199 --> 01:03:21,760
not just like continue to make games, but to understand

1402
01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:25,280
the zeitgeist surrounding them enough to then toy with it

1403
01:03:25,440 --> 01:03:27,360
with characters and gameplay mechanics.

1404
01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:31,239
Speaker 2: I don't know if I would have that kind of Yeah,

1405
01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:34,039
that's that's crazy. He's one of the best. And like

1406
01:03:34,159 --> 01:03:37,079
I don't know, like how many big name developers and

1407
01:03:37,159 --> 01:03:39,280
again old teams surrounded him. But like if you're looking

1408
01:03:39,320 --> 01:03:42,239
at like a studio head or director or something like,

1409
01:03:42,320 --> 01:03:44,679
you know, Miamoto is not sitting there, you know, making

1410
01:03:44,719 --> 01:03:46,960
the new Mario in his garage anymore. You know, it's

1411
01:03:47,039 --> 01:03:47,840
like how many of these?

1412
01:03:48,239 --> 01:03:51,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I hope Hugo Martin continues to get those opportunities

1413
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,239
with Doom games or other shooters whatever he does, Like

1414
01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:58,480
if they can keep messing with Doom and I I'm

1415
01:03:58,559 --> 01:04:01,280
not super optimistic, just thinking about how things are going

1416
01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:03,760
with Microsoft and whatnot. I don't know how many more

1417
01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:05,360
chances they're going to get to make games like this,

1418
01:04:05,719 --> 01:04:07,880
and these games are you know, a different kind of

1419
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,800
scale than a lot of fighting games in the grand

1420
01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:13,719
scheme of things. But like, I don't know, it's always great.

1421
01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:16,039
It's great to see like in this date and age

1422
01:04:16,039 --> 01:04:18,119
people continue to make that kind of stuff. That's like

1423
01:04:18,159 --> 01:04:20,519
adapting with the times and finding success with it.

1424
01:04:20,719 --> 01:04:26,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, or Larry forty years later, still really drilling those

1425
01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:29,760
balls and doing a great job at it. Imagine which

1426
01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:32,760
culture changes in forty years and you're still able to

1427
01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:33,559
drill a ball.

1428
01:04:33,960 --> 01:04:36,440
Speaker 2: Larry's Hideo Kajima of drilling bowling ball.

1429
01:04:36,559 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 1: I get Larry Schwab and Ed Boone on a podcast stats,

1430
01:04:41,480 --> 01:04:42,199
I would be fine.

1431
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:44,280
Speaker 2: Just if we need to sub one week, bring in Larry,

1432
01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:46,599
that would be I would do it.

1433
01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:47,360
Speaker 1: I would do it.

1434
01:04:47,559 --> 01:04:49,760
Speaker 3: Dan, here's a free idea for this new venture years.

1435
01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:54,519
Speaker 1: Find like local small business artisans who have just been

1436
01:04:54,599 --> 01:04:57,360
embedded a community for like forty years, mom and pop

1437
01:04:57,480 --> 01:04:59,519
kind of stuff and are just very good at what

1438
01:04:59,599 --> 01:05:03,159
they do. Get them to talk to like the Ed Boons.

1439
01:05:03,199 --> 01:05:06,400
Huba Martin's, Oh, like that feels very letterman Like. Let's

1440
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:07,840
find the guy that works the day, get down the

1441
01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:10,440
street and send him to be our Olympics correspondent. Yeah,

1442
01:05:10,559 --> 01:05:14,400
you know that, Okay, they talk for half an hour

1443
01:05:14,559 --> 01:05:18,559
each and it's like they'll find some common ground. It's like, oh,

1444
01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:22,159
I love bowling balls as much as you love like

1445
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:27,400
rendering lighting. Yeah yeah, I.

1446
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:31,039
Speaker 2: Got shot down numerous times and bomb probably for good reason.

1447
01:05:31,079 --> 01:05:34,440
Then probably still would today is to just task Rabbit

1448
01:05:34,800 --> 01:05:37,039
four people to come play fifty turns of Mario Party

1449
01:05:37,039 --> 01:05:39,159
against each other, like four random people that don't know

1450
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:41,400
each other, and just be like, you will be paid.

1451
01:05:41,760 --> 01:05:43,920
You will just be We'll give you snacks and drinks.

1452
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:44,519
Speaker 4: You will be paid.

1453
01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:48,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's something about that. If I was one of them,

1454
01:05:48,440 --> 01:05:50,559
I would start to feel like I'm in a Saw movie.

1455
01:05:51,559 --> 01:05:53,800
Speaker 2: I'd make it very clear, they're like, here's what we are,

1456
01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:55,800
here's what you're gonna do. It's not we're not making

1457
01:05:55,840 --> 01:05:57,239
fun of you. It's just like, let's see what this

1458
01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:57,599
is like.

1459
01:05:58,519 --> 01:06:01,519
Speaker 1: I yeah, no, I agree. The The end result might

1460
01:06:01,559 --> 01:06:04,960
be really funny. But if I was them, my alarm

1461
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:06,639
bells would be going off as.

1462
01:06:06,559 --> 01:06:11,199
Speaker 4: Soon as I kill me. I would be murdered because

1463
01:06:11,239 --> 01:06:12,480
you have told me that you were going to pay

1464
01:06:12,519 --> 01:06:13,639
me to play Mario Kart.

1465
01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 2: I would jump at the chance.

1466
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:20,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I'm glad you're still with us. Glad you'd

1467
01:06:20,039 --> 01:06:22,000
ever gone to that white van who said that they

1468
01:06:22,039 --> 01:06:24,079
were going to let you play Mario Kart all day.

1469
01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:26,440
Speaker 2: I've done a lot of very questionable like I shouldn't

1470
01:06:26,440 --> 01:06:27,800
have gotten gone there.

1471
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:30,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, the thing in.

1472
01:06:30,440 --> 01:06:33,400
Speaker 2: College I used to frequently if I ever saw party bus,

1473
01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:35,119
just like whoever I was at the bar with, I'd

1474
01:06:35,119 --> 01:06:36,280
be like, pt is off on this party bus and

1475
01:06:36,280 --> 01:06:38,079
see where it goes. And I would just hop on

1476
01:06:38,360 --> 01:06:40,199
and befriend people on the party bus, whoever was the

1477
01:06:40,239 --> 01:06:43,000
birthday guy or whatever or some party or something. Just

1478
01:06:43,079 --> 01:06:44,920
befriend people and then they're just like, oh, yeah, you're

1479
01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:46,920
part of the crew. Then you wind up in fucking

1480
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:50,440
Topeka or something, and yeah, nothing bad ever happened. It

1481
01:06:50,519 --> 01:06:51,039
was always fun.

1482
01:06:51,079 --> 01:06:51,679
Speaker 1: Everyone loved me.

1483
01:06:51,760 --> 01:06:52,199
Speaker 6: It was great.

1484
01:06:52,679 --> 01:06:53,559
Speaker 4: The original wedding.

1485
01:06:54,440 --> 01:06:56,360
Speaker 2: I could have gotten killed so many times.

1486
01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,320
Speaker 1: I'd make for a good bachelor party killing you.

1487
01:07:00,159 --> 01:07:03,960
Speaker 4: M Yeah, you're all united.

1488
01:07:04,400 --> 01:07:07,280
Speaker 1: You had the Hampton's you're a bachelor, We had you

1489
01:07:07,719 --> 01:07:10,800
in the woods wherever we wanted.

1490
01:07:10,920 --> 01:07:13,199
Speaker 2: We easily killed me in the Hampton Say. It would

1491
01:07:13,239 --> 01:07:14,440
have been so easy.

1492
01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:15,960
Speaker 4: At your bachelor party.

1493
01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:18,159
Speaker 2: That was about Mark. That was about Miss pac Man.

1494
01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:19,960
Speaker 4: That was about Miss pac Man.

1495
01:07:20,559 --> 01:07:21,639
Speaker 2: But who won an end?

1496
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:23,480
Speaker 1: It was me. It was me.

1497
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:27,320
Speaker 2: I got the pictures too.

1498
01:07:30,159 --> 01:07:32,639
Speaker 4: You can't use my own proof against me.

1499
01:07:33,119 --> 01:07:35,559
Speaker 7: I got my own proof and a court a flaw.

1500
01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:44,320
Let the record show that Dan changed all of the photography.

1501
01:07:44,519 --> 01:07:47,239
Speaker 2: You fucking assaulted me physically. All I did was beat

1502
01:07:47,239 --> 01:07:48,639
you in a video game. You think the courts are

1503
01:07:48,679 --> 01:07:49,280
gonna side with you.

1504
01:07:49,880 --> 01:07:52,880
Speaker 4: Your own wife told you that you deserved it.

1505
01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:56,039
Speaker 2: I don't think that's assible in court.

1506
01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,920
Speaker 4: Within ten seconds she was like it's too much. Get

1507
01:08:00,079 --> 01:08:02,840
away from her, and I was like, get away from me.

1508
01:08:03,239 --> 01:08:04,400
I'm gonna kill this man.

1509
01:08:05,360 --> 01:08:06,599
Speaker 1: So just jackass.

1510
01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:10,519
Speaker 4: Yes, you were doing this thing where I was getting

1511
01:08:10,559 --> 01:08:12,920
close to beating your score, and when I would get

1512
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:14,719
close to beating your score, you get really close to

1513
01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:17,199
me be like, oh you better not making any mistakes

1514
01:08:17,239 --> 01:08:20,119
because you're very close to beating my score. Better not

1515
01:08:20,279 --> 01:08:22,920
be don't go left it, And then I would. You

1516
01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,119
were like psychologically.

1517
01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:26,439
Speaker 5: Fucking with me, which I think is like cheating in

1518
01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:28,159
a way, like you weren't touching me. You're doing that

1519
01:08:28,279 --> 01:08:31,119
thing where like like really annoying brothers where they're like I'm.

1520
01:08:30,960 --> 01:08:33,000
Speaker 3: Not touching you, Yeah, little brother energy.

1521
01:08:33,199 --> 01:08:33,880
Speaker 1: I've never been.

1522
01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:39,079
Speaker 5: To the degree where like I was close, you got

1523
01:08:39,159 --> 01:08:43,159
in my face enough and I lost and I turned

1524
01:08:43,159 --> 01:08:45,159
around and I socked you right in the arm, and.

1525
01:08:47,159 --> 01:08:50,119
Speaker 4: And Bank was there and was like, dang, you get

1526
01:08:50,159 --> 01:08:50,560
out of here.

1527
01:08:51,079 --> 01:08:51,640
Speaker 1: Came down.

1528
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:53,479
Speaker 3: I came or I came into the room.

1529
01:08:54,960 --> 01:08:58,640
Speaker 1: Like while Dan was kind of recoiling from it, and

1530
01:08:58,760 --> 01:09:01,760
I could sense violence had just happened.

1531
01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:04,920
Speaker 4: No, but you was fencing up for it. He was ten,

1532
01:09:05,199 --> 01:09:06,560
was eight back right when I hit him.

1533
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:09,520
Speaker 2: It wasn't oh God, I might I'm gonna fuck this up.

1534
01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:15,039
Speaker 1: It was like Houdini. It was for shoot. Uh, not

1535
01:09:15,239 --> 01:09:18,039
a work like I could tell it was for shoot.

1536
01:09:18,159 --> 01:09:19,720
I was like, oh man, he's actually kind of thrown

1537
01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:20,680
off from something.

1538
01:09:21,399 --> 01:09:25,760
Speaker 2: I remember very hit pretty hard. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that

1539
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:26,560
kind of threw me off.

1540
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:29,600
Speaker 4: Was like punching a wet paper bag. It was like,

1541
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:33,600
I just I wanted to hurt you. And then as

1542
01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:35,479
soon as I did it, I was like, ah, you

1543
01:09:35,520 --> 01:09:37,439
really shouldn't punch people because.

1544
01:09:37,119 --> 01:09:39,079
Speaker 2: Of the Yeah, so who's the villain here?

1545
01:09:39,800 --> 01:09:44,159
Speaker 4: You still you. I haven't changed my tune. I don't

1546
01:09:44,159 --> 01:09:46,880
always think violence is the answer, but I don't regret

1547
01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:47,960
hitting you.

1548
01:09:48,840 --> 01:09:51,279
Speaker 2: I won in the end, so whatever history is my favorite.

1549
01:09:51,479 --> 01:09:55,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, weekend maybe. And then we discovered we did the

1550
01:09:55,319 --> 01:10:00,520
we the garage had like twelve shwind bikes on hooks,

1551
01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:02,279
so we made they took advantage of that.

1552
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:05,199
Speaker 4: We all hit the bike, so it was so cute.

1553
01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:07,119
Speaker 3: And then we like found this.

1554
01:10:07,399 --> 01:10:10,560
Speaker 1: A couple of my friends, like local friends here, found

1555
01:10:10,640 --> 01:10:14,399
that backwoods route into a different neighborhood and then we

1556
01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:17,800
stumbled across that gas station with the beers. We all

1557
01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:22,600
there was the fan that worked there, right, Oh no, no, no, no,

1558
01:10:22,720 --> 01:10:27,840
that's the liquor store. No, we this might have been.

1559
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:31,479
It was my buddy Drew a nick like found this

1560
01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:35,119
path through the woods somehow. And then we came out

1561
01:10:35,119 --> 01:10:37,079
into another neighborhood and there was like this bodega in

1562
01:10:37,119 --> 01:10:39,680
the corner that we got beers at and rode back

1563
01:10:39,720 --> 01:10:41,680
with beers and paper bags to the house.

1564
01:10:42,039 --> 01:10:46,680
Speaker 3: The the liquor store was Dylan was a fan named Dylan.

1565
01:10:47,159 --> 01:10:52,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, good memory. That was a fun trip.

1566
01:10:52,359 --> 01:10:56,560
We had a good time. Everybody drank a lot and

1567
01:10:56,880 --> 01:11:01,560
I won the misspac Man contest jaking.

1568
01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:04,680
Speaker 1: At that part out. But yeah, it was a good time. Dan,

1569
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:07,840
what's I know what it is, But how's delivered all costs.

1570
01:11:08,079 --> 01:11:11,439
Speaker 2: Actually, I want to segue from our Doom conversation into

1571
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:14,479
I've been playing We're talking about Doom three, and I've

1572
01:11:14,520 --> 01:11:16,640
been playing a game that runs on the Doom three

1573
01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:18,720
engine and Deep.

1574
01:11:20,039 --> 01:11:22,119
Speaker 1: I don't know, have you guys heard of us skin Deep?

1575
01:11:22,199 --> 01:11:23,119
Speaker 4: No, tell me about it.

1576
01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:26,279
Speaker 2: So I've actually specifically thought of Mike a lot.

1577
01:11:26,359 --> 01:11:29,680
Speaker 1: Well, it looks like Shadow Run kind of art almost well,

1578
01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:34,520
always described to me as an im sim but like comedic,

1579
01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:37,000
and so soon as I heard that, I thought Mike

1580
01:11:37,039 --> 01:11:38,560
Mahart because yeah, people were saying like, oh, it's like

1581
01:11:38,680 --> 01:11:42,960
Prey or Dishonored, but like if it was funny, and

1582
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:46,600
and yes, that does appear to be an accurate description

1583
01:11:46,680 --> 01:11:49,640
of it. I suck at it, so like, I don't

1584
01:11:49,680 --> 01:11:51,520
think I loved it, But I think this is a

1585
01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:54,840
me problem because like it clearly gives you a million

1586
01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:56,880
tools here where it's like you're in space and you're

1587
01:11:57,199 --> 01:11:59,880
saving cats from like spaceship, like space.

1588
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:01,960
Speaker 4: I can get behind this is this.

1589
01:12:03,319 --> 01:12:05,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is the most Mike ma hearty coded game ever.

1590
01:12:06,279 --> 01:12:09,680
So yeah, you're in space and some saving cats and

1591
01:12:09,880 --> 01:12:11,880
so there's stuff like okay, you can go up and

1592
01:12:13,119 --> 01:12:15,119
there's a soap dispenser and if you hit that, it'll

1593
01:12:15,159 --> 01:12:17,840
make a cloud of flammable soap liquid in the air

1594
01:12:18,119 --> 01:12:19,880
and you can go hide somewhere wait for a guy

1595
01:12:19,960 --> 01:12:21,319
to walk through it, and you can throw a lighter

1596
01:12:21,640 --> 01:12:24,439
and you can you know, ignite everything. Or like you

1597
01:12:24,520 --> 01:12:26,560
can set a banana down next to an airlock, and

1598
01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:28,560
a guy slipped on a banana and get sucked out

1599
01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:32,520
of an airlock into space next to a what air lock? No,

1600
01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:35,119
you sleep on a what? But nanna thank you?

1601
01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:35,680
Speaker 1: Yes?

1602
01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:41,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you slip on the banana, and but I

1603
01:12:41,359 --> 01:12:44,119
suck at it. So I would just get caught and

1604
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:47,279
throw like pepper in their face and then go like

1605
01:12:47,319 --> 01:12:48,800
try to beat them to death of the pipe. So

1606
01:12:48,960 --> 01:12:50,520
it was frustrating for me because it's like I could

1607
01:12:50,520 --> 01:12:52,359
tell there were so many cool things you could do,

1608
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:55,239
and I wanted to do them, but I just kept

1609
01:12:55,279 --> 01:12:57,880
sucking up. But I think I think either review would

1610
01:12:57,880 --> 01:12:59,600
be much better than me at this, and it's fun too.

1611
01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:02,159
Is like when you knock out an enemy, you have

1612
01:13:02,319 --> 01:13:04,840
to like their head comes off and you have to

1613
01:13:05,079 --> 01:13:07,039
to kill them kill them. You have to like send

1614
01:13:07,079 --> 01:13:09,720
their head out into space so you can throw their

1615
01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:12,199
head into an air lock and jettison it out, or

1616
01:13:12,279 --> 01:13:14,319
you can throw it in a trash can that exits

1617
01:13:14,319 --> 01:13:17,079
into space. Otherwise it will like shre like the head

1618
01:13:17,119 --> 01:13:20,199
gets like reconnected to the body basically, and they come

1619
01:13:20,199 --> 01:13:23,079
back to life. So this is a weird game for sure.

1620
01:13:23,279 --> 01:13:25,279
Speaker 1: Look, you're saving cats that are in like these like

1621
01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:29,079
locked up like in case of fire break the glass

1622
01:13:29,199 --> 01:13:30,039
kind of containers.

1623
01:13:30,159 --> 01:13:32,039
Speaker 2: So yeah, you're getting like a blue cat key and

1624
01:13:32,119 --> 01:13:34,119
you go save Jerry the cat. And then after you

1625
01:13:34,159 --> 01:13:35,880
save them, they're like emailing you. So like you go

1626
01:13:35,960 --> 01:13:38,520
up to terminals and you're like responding to cat emails

1627
01:13:38,560 --> 01:13:41,880
and having conversations with them and stuff. It's it's got

1628
01:13:41,920 --> 01:13:44,520
a lot of personality. I think it works. I think

1629
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:47,720
describing it, I would worry that it's like, Oh, is

1630
01:13:47,720 --> 01:13:50,560
this gonna be fucking Internet? Oh isn't bacon sweet? I

1631
01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:53,000
can't have cheeseburger like wacky random humor.

1632
01:13:53,239 --> 01:13:53,479
Speaker 1: It's not.

1633
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:54,960
Speaker 2: It seems actually funny.

1634
01:13:55,399 --> 01:13:56,840
Speaker 1: Like I like the tone of this game a lot,

1635
01:13:57,239 --> 01:13:59,319
and I think if I was just better at these

1636
01:13:59,359 --> 01:14:00,680
type of games, I would love it.

1637
01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:03,960
Speaker 2: But I got it here what Mike would.

1638
01:14:03,760 --> 01:14:05,640
Speaker 1: Think of it? But also Mary, I think this might

1639
01:14:05,720 --> 01:14:07,640
be like, this could be like a fun stream indie

1640
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:08,039
game for you.

1641
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:11,800
Speaker 5: Usually when they're games like this, I struggle with them too,

1642
01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:14,880
because I'm not sneaky, and usually unless it's being more

1643
01:14:14,960 --> 01:14:16,920
clear with what it wants me to do, I'll be

1644
01:14:17,039 --> 01:14:18,279
like this is too sandboxy.

1645
01:14:18,479 --> 01:14:21,159
Speaker 4: Just tell me like what you want of me in

1646
01:14:21,239 --> 01:14:21,920
this situation.

1647
01:14:22,159 --> 01:14:22,840
Speaker 1: But I love the.

1648
01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:23,640
Speaker 4: Humor of it.

1649
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:25,319
Speaker 5: It's like it looks like another way you can go

1650
01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:27,840
heart of the heads is by flushing them. This is

1651
01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:29,960
a funny idea, is like you're just like getting rid

1652
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:31,319
of these heads after you've killed them.

1653
01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:33,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's like, yeah, I'm seeing gameplay.

1654
01:14:33,600 --> 01:14:37,119
Speaker 1: It's like, okay, you got you escaped one sector or

1655
01:14:37,159 --> 01:14:38,840
whatever you want to say through the trash shoot. So

1656
01:14:38,920 --> 01:14:42,479
now you smell and you're tracking fark like smell clouds

1657
01:14:42,479 --> 01:14:43,840
around which they can follow you by.

1658
01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:46,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, like I came out of a stinky thing or whatever,

1659
01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:48,399
and like those text on the screens like you are smelly.

1660
01:14:48,600 --> 01:14:51,239
It's oh shit, I'm smelly, so like you got to

1661
01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:53,479
keep your stink in mind. But it's also stuff like

1662
01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:55,840
you know, you you break a window with something and

1663
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:57,560
then you walk past it and oh shit, you get

1664
01:14:57,600 --> 01:14:59,319
glass in your feet and you have to like, you know,

1665
01:14:59,399 --> 01:15:01,199
pull the glass out and stuff like. There's just a

1666
01:15:01,319 --> 01:15:04,720
lot of interesting interactions with the environment, in the enemies

1667
01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:05,199
in this game.

1668
01:15:05,880 --> 01:15:08,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks rad I like the I kind of

1669
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:11,960
read this description in Mary's voice. It's like, skin Deep

1670
01:15:12,079 --> 01:15:14,960
is an immersive first person shooter. We got sneezing, we

1671
01:15:15,039 --> 01:15:17,399
got things getting stuck in your feet. It's is the

1672
01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:20,560
most like Mary wrote that kind of Okay.

1673
01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:27,479
Speaker 4: Maybe I did their marketing. Yeah, You're out numbered. I love.

1674
01:15:28,960 --> 01:15:31,720
Speaker 5: I haven't heard much about this, and I also haven't

1675
01:15:31,720 --> 01:15:34,640
heard much from Annapurna in a while, so I'm quite

1676
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:36,640
interested in what's going on over there.

1677
01:15:37,159 --> 01:15:38,000
Speaker 3: Blendo Games.

1678
01:15:38,039 --> 01:15:38,720
Speaker 1: What else did they do?

1679
01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:44,319
Speaker 3: They Quadrilateral Cowboy and Cyber No, what's it called?

1680
01:15:48,359 --> 01:15:54,800
Speaker 1: Quadrilateral Cowboy, Gravity Bone Flotilla, Quadrilateral Cowboy, Adam Zombie, no

1681
01:15:55,399 --> 01:15:57,359
Hypno Space Outlaw was the same people that did that.

1682
01:16:00,119 --> 01:16:02,840
They did another similar game. But yeah, okay, yeah, so

1683
01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:04,600
you know the humor is good, you know, yeah, Quastion

1684
01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:08,239
Literal Cowboys humor was definitely good. The hacking game for

1685
01:16:08,319 --> 01:16:12,159
those didn't play it was it was funny. Yeah, I

1686
01:16:12,199 --> 01:16:14,560
want to play this, Yeah, I'd love to hear what

1687
01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:17,359
you two think of it, because I wanted to add

1688
01:16:17,399 --> 01:16:18,920
to kart Go right now?

1689
01:16:19,119 --> 01:16:20,479
Speaker 2: Do that expense?

1690
01:16:20,560 --> 01:16:22,079
Speaker 1: This is a company that I'm joking.

1691
01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:25,239
Speaker 2: We work for companies and expense stuff.

1692
01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:29,600
Speaker 1: Look at us. No, I'm uh, I'm just gonna. Oh

1693
01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:31,560
I don't have a Steam. Oh I'm not in Steam,

1694
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:33,560
or I was in the I was on.

1695
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:39,479
Speaker 4: The websites, not Steam anyway, what other games.

1696
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:41,479
Speaker 3: I was on the website.

1697
01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:42,560
Speaker 4: I don't care.

1698
01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:48,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, hold on a second, let's check this out.

1699
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:51,199
Speaker 1: Oh my god, minus seventy percent of the Wischer three

1700
01:16:51,239 --> 01:16:53,039
wild Hout with expansions seven forty nine.

1701
01:16:54,159 --> 01:16:57,039
Speaker 4: Oh my god, saying things out loud, My god.

1702
01:16:58,039 --> 01:16:59,880
Speaker 3: Oh Dan's gone and it's just me doing this.

1703
01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:03,880
Speaker 4: Yes, Mike, you're playing. They are billions.

1704
01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:07,359
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, this is gonna be a really quick thing.

1705
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:12,840
Speaker 1: I I don't think. No, it doesn't.

1706
01:17:15,319 --> 01:17:16,760
Speaker 3: Fairbellians does not have rats.

1707
01:17:17,119 --> 01:17:18,720
Speaker 2: What am I thinking of I don't know.

1708
01:17:20,960 --> 01:17:27,680
Speaker 1: Depends. I think zombies, not rats, though it's rats. There's

1709
01:17:27,720 --> 01:17:31,920
no rats in it's zombies. So I don't think.

1710
01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:33,560
Speaker 3: I think this would have been pre fire Escape.

1711
01:17:33,800 --> 01:17:35,159
Speaker 1: Uh this game.

1712
01:17:35,239 --> 01:17:37,920
Speaker 3: Numantean Game's Spanish studio made it.

1713
01:17:39,079 --> 01:17:40,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. It's it's not a new game whatsoever.

1714
01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:42,960
I just went back to replay it lately. It's still

1715
01:17:43,039 --> 01:17:43,880
really fucking good.

1716
01:17:44,199 --> 01:17:46,560
Speaker 2: It's like RTS, but you're like basically just building the

1717
01:17:46,640 --> 01:17:49,319
base and then the waves of rats.

1718
01:17:49,439 --> 01:17:52,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it was made for people who play real

1719
01:17:52,279 --> 01:17:53,199
time strategy games.

1720
01:17:53,640 --> 01:17:55,439
Speaker 2: Zombies, not Wrave of rats.

1721
01:17:55,600 --> 01:17:58,680
Speaker 1: See that's wave. But I liked it. I remember I

1722
01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:00,279
played a decent amount of it, and there's like a shit,

1723
01:18:00,359 --> 01:18:02,600
this is this is kind of scratching, like a base

1724
01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:07,399
building itch. Yeah. No, well so it's it's built. They

1725
01:18:07,479 --> 01:18:10,319
literally built it for people who turtle in real time

1726
01:18:10,359 --> 01:18:13,560
strategy games, whereas you played defensively and you slowly build

1727
01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:15,600
out your base and build up your the strength of

1728
01:18:15,600 --> 01:18:16,159
your forces.

1729
01:18:16,720 --> 01:18:18,640
Speaker 3: So you're just you start off with a like a.

1730
01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:23,520
Speaker 1: In command center rather and you get a few different

1731
01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:27,039
like bow and arrow characters and a soldier, and you're

1732
01:18:27,119 --> 01:18:32,439
just expanding across this wasteland, building shelters and then fishing

1733
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:39,039
huts for food, lumber mills, stone quarries, and eventually you're

1734
01:18:39,039 --> 01:18:41,199
building up an army. But your main concern is that

1735
01:18:41,279 --> 01:18:44,239
every like ten depending on the difficulty, every ten to

1736
01:18:44,359 --> 01:18:47,039
thirty days, Zombies waves of zombies are gonna attack, and

1737
01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:50,640
the game's tech is such that it can render a

1738
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:55,079
lot of zombies at once and explosions and blood, blood

1739
01:18:55,199 --> 01:18:59,560
pops and whatnot. So you're just it's defending this base

1740
01:18:59,640 --> 01:19:03,359
over time and slowly expanding it when you need more space. Eventually,

1741
01:19:03,640 --> 01:19:05,720
the last wave, it's like, all right, they're coming.

1742
01:19:05,800 --> 01:19:06,439
Speaker 3: They are billions.

1743
01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:09,079
Speaker 1: It's not actually a billion, but it's quite a few

1744
01:19:09,119 --> 01:19:12,079
of them. If you haven't played this game, I don't know.

1745
01:19:12,159 --> 01:19:14,600
If you're a strategy fan, real time strategy fan and

1746
01:19:14,920 --> 01:19:18,520
you like Turtling and Command of conquer or Company of Heroes,

1747
01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:19,000
what have you?

1748
01:19:19,520 --> 01:19:21,439
Speaker 2: Check us out. It's still in really good spot.

1749
01:19:21,520 --> 01:19:21,760
Speaker 1: Do not.

1750
01:19:22,720 --> 01:19:25,159
Speaker 3: Don't play the campaign. Play the survival mode.

1751
01:19:25,279 --> 01:19:27,880
Speaker 1: Oh sure, they started with survival mode in early access

1752
01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:30,600
and they added the campaign. All the campaign does is

1753
01:19:30,640 --> 01:19:35,199
some very loose story on top of pretty boring linear

1754
01:19:35,279 --> 01:19:39,239
missions that introduce certain units at a very slow pace,

1755
01:19:39,279 --> 01:19:41,600
as opposed to survival, which is very much about kind

1756
01:19:41,640 --> 01:19:44,600
of making the most of your time, and you know,

1757
01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:47,960
you send out parties to go investigate zombie villages and

1758
01:19:48,279 --> 01:19:51,399
get the resources there. I don't know, just a shout

1759
01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:54,760
to them, because this game has held up. Have you

1760
01:19:54,840 --> 01:19:56,119
heard of a Tempest rising?

1761
01:19:57,840 --> 01:19:59,840
Speaker 2: Yes, that's the Command of Conquer inspired.

1762
01:20:00,239 --> 01:20:01,079
Speaker 1: I want to play that.

1763
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:05,199
Speaker 2: I've played very briefly and it's extremely Command and Conquer like.

1764
01:20:05,199 --> 01:20:07,479
They even got like Frank Klapaki for some like music tracks.

1765
01:20:07,840 --> 01:20:12,319
What era mechanically speaking, maybe like a Tiberian Sun or

1766
01:20:12,479 --> 01:20:15,000
a Tiberian Sun Red Alert to era.

1767
01:20:15,199 --> 01:20:18,439
Speaker 1: I would say, oh, I think you would like I

1768
01:20:18,520 --> 01:20:20,720
would maybe we should play it against each other at

1769
01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:21,039
some point.

1770
01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:23,079
Speaker 3: No, I know the time period're saying.

1771
01:20:23,079 --> 01:20:25,399
Speaker 1: I was saying Tiberian Sun Radulers, who are very different

1772
01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:27,880
games in terms of like how they flow.

1773
01:20:28,600 --> 01:20:32,479
Speaker 2: The units themselves are more GDI verse NOD, but a

1774
01:20:32,920 --> 01:20:34,680
gameplay itself and a lot of the sounds is like

1775
01:20:34,720 --> 01:20:36,600
the fucking unit sounds sound like they're straight out a

1776
01:20:36,600 --> 01:20:39,199
Red Alert too. So it's definitely thinking of like numerous

1777
01:20:39,239 --> 01:20:40,640
Command of Conquer games while playing it.

1778
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to play that for sure? Is it

1779
01:20:43,720 --> 01:20:47,199
early access? There's a fully out it's out out now. Yeah.

1780
01:20:47,199 --> 01:20:48,760
Speaker 2: I think we got a couple of emails asking if

1781
01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:49,319
we had played that.

1782
01:20:49,800 --> 01:20:50,439
Speaker 1: I'm not yet.

1783
01:20:50,760 --> 01:20:53,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to play more. For sure strategy game.

1784
01:20:53,359 --> 01:20:54,920
Speaker 1: Our real time strategy is kind of the thing I

1785
01:20:55,000 --> 01:20:58,560
go to the most lately to get away from everything

1786
01:20:58,640 --> 01:21:00,960
in terms of, like I'm playing new games, but when

1787
01:21:01,000 --> 01:21:03,319
I have a choice of what to play outside of

1788
01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:06,520
trying to keep up with new releases, it's real time strategy.

1789
01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:08,279
That's probably why I went back to their Billions, but

1790
01:21:08,439 --> 01:21:10,239
Tempest Rising is high on my list as well.

1791
01:21:10,800 --> 01:21:12,640
Speaker 3: Nice Mary, what else have you been playing?

1792
01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:15,640
Speaker 4: I played a game that Dan recommended to me.

1793
01:21:16,680 --> 01:21:19,399
Speaker 5: Dan told me that he was playing this game called

1794
01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:24,199
Bionic Bay that was like kind of limbo, you know,

1795
01:21:24,880 --> 01:21:25,239
where you.

1796
01:21:25,359 --> 01:21:27,840
Speaker 4: Just go through it. You die, but you do your

1797
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:32,119
best to survive and you learn the different rules of

1798
01:21:32,159 --> 01:21:35,239
the world. And I I he was right. I'm playing

1799
01:21:35,279 --> 01:21:39,039
it and I think it's really cool. It has atmosphere

1800
01:21:39,279 --> 01:21:42,319
out the wazoo. Oh yeah, you are essentially in some

1801
01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:46,920
kind of like futuristic fucked up factory. I don't know

1802
01:21:47,039 --> 01:21:51,720
what they're making in that factory, but he's deadly. There

1803
01:21:51,920 --> 01:21:53,199
is like a bomb up.

1804
01:21:53,760 --> 01:21:57,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, there's bombs everywhere, and the gears are sharp, and

1805
01:21:58,000 --> 01:22:00,520
you're just this tiny person in this giant factory. If

1806
01:22:00,560 --> 01:22:03,000
you look at any screenshot or any gameplay from this game,

1807
01:22:03,079 --> 01:22:06,760
you'll you just this tiny little person with these gangly

1808
01:22:06,840 --> 01:22:11,479
little arms and you're dipping diving through these giant mechanical

1809
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:13,000
parts trying to survive.

1810
01:22:13,319 --> 01:22:16,199
Speaker 4: Now, the interesting component of this game that I don't

1811
01:22:16,239 --> 01:22:20,159
know if you explained. Maybe I was like I'm not listening,

1812
01:22:20,279 --> 01:22:22,079
but like I don't remember you telling me about the

1813
01:22:22,119 --> 01:22:24,439
swipsop ability ability.

1814
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:25,920
Speaker 5: Where you can like punch stuff and then you can

1815
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:30,880
swap places with it, which is really nice and new

1816
01:22:31,039 --> 01:22:34,039
way to play on this limbo type game where you're

1817
01:22:34,079 --> 01:22:37,159
constantly dying and getting crossed or electrocuted or melted or whatever.

1818
01:22:37,239 --> 01:22:39,840
But like in this one, maybe a laser is coming

1819
01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:42,640
towards you and there's a box, so you have to

1820
01:22:43,399 --> 01:22:44,520
switch places with the box.

1821
01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:46,840
Speaker 4: The laser hits the box and not you. Now you're

1822
01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:49,720
hiding behind the box. I think that's a really fun

1823
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:50,760
concept behind it.

1824
01:22:50,800 --> 01:22:52,359
Speaker 5: I think there are other games that are like completely

1825
01:22:52,399 --> 01:22:54,720
dedicated to swip swapping, like Swapper and stuff like that.

1826
01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,239
Speaker 4: Like I think if you like things like that, this

1827
01:22:57,359 --> 01:22:59,920
game is so up your alley. I think it's been

1828
01:23:01,079 --> 01:23:02,319
a fun ride so far.

1829
01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:04,920
Speaker 2: And even though the platforming, like the jumping that like

1830
01:23:05,119 --> 01:23:06,840
roll dive, you know, dive.

1831
01:23:06,680 --> 01:23:09,960
Speaker 5: In the air like that dive then jump on. Yeah,

1832
01:23:10,000 --> 01:23:13,560
there's a roll jump dive jump dive is the longest

1833
01:23:13,680 --> 01:23:16,399
and it's a big ass jump and that's pretty fun.

1834
01:23:16,600 --> 01:23:18,640
Speaker 2: And then sometimes when you're doing that with like swapping

1835
01:23:18,680 --> 01:23:20,239
a thing out like okay, and then I'm gonna drop

1836
01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:22,760
this block onto spike so i can land on it,

1837
01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:24,520
and like, oh, it's really fucking cool.

1838
01:23:25,079 --> 01:23:27,319
Speaker 5: There's a lot of platforming in this that I don't

1839
01:23:27,319 --> 01:23:29,720
think Limbo every day every day, and like, I know,

1840
01:23:30,039 --> 01:23:33,039
maybe like the Limbo comparison is mostly because you die

1841
01:23:33,079 --> 01:23:34,640
a lot, like you're experiencing something.

1842
01:23:34,479 --> 01:23:36,680
Speaker 4: And your intention. The intention is for you to die

1843
01:23:36,760 --> 01:23:38,760
and then learn and be like, oh, okay, I see

1844
01:23:38,800 --> 01:23:41,319
this crushes me. I need this faster.

1845
01:23:41,920 --> 01:23:44,199
Speaker 1: Yeah. Like the atmosphere kind of like it's got that

1846
01:23:44,359 --> 01:23:47,319
Limbo vibe to it. It is just like Limbo is heavier.

1847
01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:49,520
Speaker 2: The needle is more in the puzzle side with Limbo,

1848
01:23:49,560 --> 01:23:51,960
and it's more in the platforming on this. But there's

1849
01:23:52,039 --> 01:23:53,960
elements of both in both, you know, and.

1850
01:23:54,079 --> 01:23:56,880
Speaker 5: I and I appreciate platforming puzzles. It's like one of

1851
01:23:56,920 --> 01:24:00,319
my favorite things to do. So over time, like figuring

1852
01:24:00,359 --> 01:24:02,840
out how it wants me to get past a certain

1853
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:07,199
area has been quite fun. There's some gotcha's, just like

1854
01:24:07,279 --> 01:24:09,680
any of these games where like you think you've gotten

1855
01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:11,960
passinary and you touch a box and it explodes, and

1856
01:24:12,000 --> 01:24:14,119
it's like, well those are the exploding boxes, and it's like,

1857
01:24:14,119 --> 01:24:16,720
all right, you little bitch. But like, I think it's

1858
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:19,520
fun and lighthearted and simple enough, and the save states

1859
01:24:19,600 --> 01:24:24,560
are respectful enough that even when I die randomly because

1860
01:24:24,560 --> 01:24:26,439
they didn't know that that thing was going to kill me,

1861
01:24:27,000 --> 01:24:29,319
I'm like five seconds away from that area.

1862
01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:30,840
Speaker 4: It's very considerate.

1863
01:24:31,079 --> 01:24:33,800
Speaker 2: I'm always laughing. I'm never frustrated when I like die

1864
01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:35,479
to something like that because like there's not like a

1865
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:37,399
load time when you die, it's just like you're right

1866
01:24:37,479 --> 01:24:39,239
back there. And like Mary said, the save states are

1867
01:24:39,319 --> 01:24:41,840
just like right, like your checkpoints are right where you were,

1868
01:24:41,960 --> 01:24:43,800
so like you'll never lose a ton of progress.

1869
01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:46,560
Speaker 1: It's I will just because your little dude gets fucked up.

1870
01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:49,000
It's just like, oh that thing just cuts me, cuts

1871
01:24:49,039 --> 01:24:51,079
my limbs off. Oh that thing explodes me. It's like

1872
01:24:51,119 --> 01:24:53,159
a let's try that a different way.

1873
01:24:53,359 --> 01:24:55,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's not a frustrating game. I think it's

1874
01:24:56,039 --> 01:24:56,720
I think it's nice.

1875
01:24:56,760 --> 01:24:59,800
Speaker 5: I also just will say visually, I think it's the

1876
01:25:00,119 --> 01:25:03,079
something kind of almost monochrome about it, where like everything

1877
01:25:03,199 --> 01:25:05,319
is either like all soft.

1878
01:25:05,159 --> 01:25:08,479
Speaker 4: Blues or like all warm orange hues. They've done a

1879
01:25:08,560 --> 01:25:11,520
good job visually. The aesthetic is nice.

1880
01:25:11,800 --> 01:25:18,399
Speaker 5: You're in some kind of futuristic tech world or hell,

1881
01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:19,720
I don't really know.

1882
01:25:20,119 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 2: It doesn't even try to like, it's just like, oh,

1883
01:25:22,039 --> 01:25:24,800
something goes wrong, some science experiment went wrong at the beginning,

1884
01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:27,199
and like at the end of like each like longer level,

1885
01:25:27,319 --> 01:25:29,479
you'll get like a page of text from like a

1886
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:32,479
dead guy or a scientist or something. Yes, like okay, whatever,

1887
01:25:32,600 --> 01:25:34,640
it's you don't. You don't need to follow anything story

1888
01:25:34,680 --> 01:25:36,199
wise here on the Dowey.

1889
01:25:36,000 --> 01:25:38,960
Speaker 4: Versus Talkie scale. You just show up in this factory

1890
01:25:39,199 --> 01:25:43,119
and like eight hours in there's like one paragraph yes

1891
01:25:43,720 --> 01:25:46,000
you don't, and you don't have to read it.

1892
01:25:46,800 --> 01:25:48,439
Speaker 2: And I was worried that it wasn't gonna run well

1893
01:25:48,439 --> 01:25:50,239
on steam Deck because like there's a lot of physics

1894
01:25:50,279 --> 01:25:52,159
stuff going on in this game. But it is a

1895
01:25:52,520 --> 01:25:56,800
fantastic flight game. It's a great steam Deck game. Highly recommended.

1896
01:25:57,199 --> 01:25:59,359
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've been I've really liked to thank you for

1897
01:25:59,399 --> 01:26:00,000
the recommendation.

1898
01:26:00,319 --> 01:26:02,199
Speaker 5: I think this is perfect for someone who's just looking

1899
01:26:02,279 --> 01:26:04,640
for like a I don't want to say brain dead.

1900
01:26:04,640 --> 01:26:06,760
Speaker 4: I think there are some puzzles, there are some thinking's,

1901
01:26:06,840 --> 01:26:07,960
but not like not really.

1902
01:26:08,199 --> 01:26:10,159
Speaker 5: Most of the time, it's just like, get it done,

1903
01:26:10,640 --> 01:26:15,520
figure it out, get past this glowing blob, don't get electrocuted,

1904
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:16,479
don't let this crush you.

1905
01:26:16,880 --> 01:26:20,920
Speaker 4: Like what I'm Yeah, yeah, don't get electrocuted. Don't let

1906
01:26:20,960 --> 01:26:22,680
this crush you. Figure it out.

1907
01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:26,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, awesome game again. Took like hours off of

1908
01:26:27,000 --> 01:26:30,279
my Japan flight recently, just real good flight game.

1909
01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:33,000
Speaker 4: It's it's probably longer than it seems too, because I

1910
01:26:33,079 --> 01:26:34,800
put like eight hours into it, and I don't think.

1911
01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:37,079
I don't know how far I am into it, but

1912
01:26:37,119 --> 01:26:38,199
I bet I have a lot more to go.

1913
01:26:38,600 --> 01:26:40,600
Speaker 2: But it evolves enough, like it's not like you're just

1914
01:26:40,640 --> 01:26:42,800
doing the same thing over and over again. It's like, Okay,

1915
01:26:42,920 --> 01:26:44,960
this is really heavy on the swap mechanic, and then

1916
01:26:44,960 --> 01:26:47,640
it's moving into a different thing. And yeah, it's very

1917
01:26:47,840 --> 01:26:48,960
very smartly put together game.

1918
01:26:49,439 --> 01:26:51,119
Speaker 4: Cool, thank you for the wreck.

1919
01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:55,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're about to deliver at all costs. This is

1920
01:26:55,439 --> 01:26:58,359
a wacky little game that speaks to me. Also on

1921
01:26:58,479 --> 01:27:00,640
the Dewey scale. Actually there is there is more talking

1922
01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:02,319
than nude expect in this game. But the dewey is

1923
01:27:02,520 --> 01:27:08,560
very dewey. It's isometric. You're driving a car around. You're

1924
01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:10,840
a delivery guy. You work for a company called We Deliver,

1925
01:27:11,039 --> 01:27:13,520
and it's just really weird shit. So like one of

1926
01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:16,760
the first emissions is like, oh, at this tiki bar,

1927
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:19,960
all of these watermelons got stinky and gross and there's

1928
01:27:19,960 --> 01:27:21,920
bugs on them. It's like, okay, well, I'm going to

1929
01:27:21,960 --> 01:27:26,199
get paid to take these watermelons to a pesticide plant

1930
01:27:26,359 --> 01:27:29,720
or whatever and spram all with pesticides and then I'm going.

1931
01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:31,359
Speaker 2: And like while they're in the back of your truck.

1932
01:27:31,399 --> 01:27:33,920
It's all physics. So it's like you start with sixty

1933
01:27:34,039 --> 01:27:35,920
watermelons and you need to at least deliver twenty. But

1934
01:27:35,920 --> 01:27:37,520
if you take a turn too sharp, nope, there go

1935
01:27:37,680 --> 01:27:40,159
ten watermelons. You know, so you're like really trying to

1936
01:27:40,239 --> 01:27:40,960
be careful.

1937
01:27:40,680 --> 01:27:44,039
Speaker 4: Delivering this crazy taxi boy in a way.

1938
01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:46,079
Speaker 1: I mean, it is a lot of delivering. It's not

1939
01:27:46,439 --> 01:27:49,359
as yeah, say, ye taxi goes room, but I know

1940
01:27:49,479 --> 01:27:53,319
that's not what it is. But it's just similar name convention. Sure, No,

1941
01:27:53,479 --> 01:27:56,800
it's it's less time specifically than crazy Taxi. It crazy

1942
01:27:56,840 --> 01:27:58,239
tax She was made for the arcade, so it's like

1943
01:27:58,800 --> 01:27:59,840
get people out, get another quarter.

1944
01:28:00,079 --> 01:28:02,600
Speaker 2: Know this one is. There are some time missions, but

1945
01:28:02,680 --> 01:28:04,640
it's a lot more just like get up and down

1946
01:28:04,680 --> 01:28:07,399
this precarious mountain and drive a truck into a volcano.

1947
01:28:07,920 --> 01:28:11,520
Or like that watermelon one, so you spray with pesticides,

1948
01:28:11,720 --> 01:28:13,560
then you take them to like a place where you

1949
01:28:13,680 --> 01:28:16,359
paint them all green, and then you go sell them

1950
01:28:16,399 --> 01:28:18,000
back to the tiki bar because it's like, oh, look

1951
01:28:18,000 --> 01:28:20,199
they're fresh melons. It's like no, you just sprayed the

1952
01:28:20,199 --> 01:28:22,800
bugs off them and painted them green. So just weird

1953
01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:25,159
shit like that. You're delivering fireworks, like boxes of fireworks

1954
01:28:25,319 --> 01:28:27,359
while they're all going off and like they're exploding and

1955
01:28:27,399 --> 01:28:29,640
making the physics on your cargo crazy. You can get

1956
01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:33,119
spike spike wheels. You can like get a catapult that

1957
01:28:33,199 --> 01:28:36,159
launches stuff off of your truck. There's alien stuff where

1958
01:28:36,159 --> 01:28:39,319
you're following saucers around and taking pictures while they're abducting cows.

1959
01:28:39,359 --> 01:28:41,479
It's just it almost it's got the vibe of like

1960
01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:43,039
a weird PS two game that.

1961
01:28:43,119 --> 01:28:45,680
Speaker 5: I really it definitely does. It is that in like

1962
01:28:45,720 --> 01:28:48,960
a nineteen forties mobster era.

1963
01:28:49,439 --> 01:28:52,079
Speaker 2: Sixties and it's kind of like idyllic sixties stuff, and

1964
01:28:52,159 --> 01:28:54,239
like there is a little more story than I think

1965
01:28:54,239 --> 01:28:56,239
I would want in this game, because it's not the

1966
01:28:56,359 --> 01:28:59,319
best in terms of story, but the driving around I

1967
01:28:59,399 --> 01:29:02,039
think a key thing is too. The destructibility is you

1968
01:29:02,159 --> 01:29:04,680
can just drive straight through any building, Like you go

1969
01:29:04,720 --> 01:29:07,079
into the suburbs and you're driving through every church, every store,

1970
01:29:07,159 --> 01:29:11,239
every house. Oh yeah, yeah, and it's it all just

1971
01:29:11,399 --> 01:29:13,720
is very satisfying the way everything kind of breaks apart

1972
01:29:13,760 --> 01:29:15,479
and then it's like, oh you have to like go

1973
01:29:15,520 --> 01:29:17,199
the opposite direction where it's like I have a bomb

1974
01:29:17,279 --> 01:29:19,199
in the back of my truck and if I tap

1975
01:29:19,319 --> 01:29:22,399
another car, it's going to like terminat or to nuke

1976
01:29:22,479 --> 01:29:26,399
explode everything in this area. So it's it's it is

1977
01:29:26,479 --> 01:29:28,039
all just delivering stuff for me to be for the

1978
01:29:28,079 --> 01:29:30,439
most part. But it does a good job of kind

1979
01:29:30,479 --> 01:29:35,840
of keeping those missions fresh. You know, I haven't played

1980
01:29:35,960 --> 01:29:38,760
like something like that in a while.

1981
01:29:39,600 --> 01:29:42,439
Speaker 5: It seems fun, like kind of silly and quirky, and like,

1982
01:29:43,359 --> 01:29:45,960
I don't it seems interesting though, but like what's the

1983
01:29:46,079 --> 01:29:47,000
depth of it is?

1984
01:29:47,079 --> 01:29:47,119
Speaker 1: It?

1985
01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:48,359
Speaker 4: Is it super cash?

1986
01:29:49,119 --> 01:29:50,960
Speaker 2: It's ketch, Like I I have come to kind of

1987
01:29:50,960 --> 01:29:52,760
play it as a podcast game. You know, at first,

1988
01:29:52,840 --> 01:29:56,199
like the tone is very quirky and fun, but there

1989
01:29:56,319 --> 01:29:58,640
is just a lot of story, and I'm I don't

1990
01:29:58,720 --> 01:30:01,319
love it as much as like the tone great, the

1991
01:30:01,399 --> 01:30:04,880
story itself, It's just kind of convoluted unnecessarily, and so

1992
01:30:05,000 --> 01:30:06,560
I do find myself just kind of like listening to

1993
01:30:06,640 --> 01:30:08,479
podcasts or you know, like I'll have something on in

1994
01:30:08,479 --> 01:30:10,279
the background while I'm playing this, and like I'm just

1995
01:30:10,359 --> 01:30:12,760
kind of here for the driving around and destroying shit.

1996
01:30:12,920 --> 01:30:16,560
And the missions are more fun than the cut scenes

1997
01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:20,119
between the missions, for sure. Yeah, very very very fun.

1998
01:30:20,680 --> 01:30:22,800
And it turns out Konami's making video games again, so

1999
01:30:22,880 --> 01:30:23,279
that's great.

2000
01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:28,279
Speaker 4: Why Konami does it feel like it should.

2001
01:30:28,000 --> 01:30:28,800
Speaker 1: Be Oh it doesn't.

2002
01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:30,399
Speaker 2: I was surprised when I went to that event in

2003
01:30:30,479 --> 01:30:31,880
England and it was like, okay, I'm going to the

2004
01:30:31,880 --> 01:30:33,680
Snake Eater event and so yeah, they got Snake Eater,

2005
01:30:33,920 --> 01:30:36,399
but also Silent Hill too, which is also good, and

2006
01:30:36,560 --> 01:30:39,640
then also delivered all costs, this quirky indie game. It's like, wait,

2007
01:30:39,720 --> 01:30:42,159
they have three games here and they're all good and

2008
01:30:42,600 --> 01:30:45,439
very surprising, Like we had two remakes but then one

2009
01:30:45,560 --> 01:30:47,880
totally original indie game, like yeah.

2010
01:30:47,960 --> 01:30:51,039
Speaker 1: Cool. Remind me when Snake Eater's out. What is it

2011
01:30:51,159 --> 01:30:53,520
like August September or something like that. Okay, so it's

2012
01:30:53,520 --> 01:30:55,920
still a ways, yeah, but it is this year. They

2013
01:30:55,960 --> 01:30:58,640
did August twenty six, so I mean that's just three

2014
01:30:58,680 --> 01:31:01,000
months away. I can't wait for that. It No, it's

2015
01:31:01,000 --> 01:31:05,279
what I played this very good, all right. I think

2016
01:31:05,319 --> 01:31:08,000
it's all the games I played more Blueprints. I'm still

2017
01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:10,079
playing that, liking it more and more than more I.

2018
01:31:10,079 --> 01:31:12,520
Speaker 4: Play it, I finish it because we're going to do

2019
01:31:12,520 --> 01:31:13,319
a spoiler.

2020
01:31:13,039 --> 01:31:15,479
Speaker 3: Cast, so I love great.

2021
01:31:16,479 --> 01:31:18,760
Speaker 1: Will it be obvious when I quote unquote beat it,

2022
01:31:19,680 --> 01:31:20,920
I didn't beat it.

2023
01:31:21,079 --> 01:31:23,279
Speaker 4: I mean, like you don't actually ever beat it. But

2024
01:31:23,359 --> 01:31:25,399
there are a credits roll, right, But.

2025
01:31:25,600 --> 01:31:28,039
Speaker 1: Like the Hades, you know when you quote you like

2026
01:31:28,560 --> 01:31:33,640
beat you you beat the bass game. I think if

2027
01:31:33,720 --> 01:31:36,720
you see credits, I think you beat. Like if you

2028
01:31:36,800 --> 01:31:38,560
want to be a real sicko about it, you can.

2029
01:31:38,720 --> 01:31:42,439
And I resila, but it's like this will goes very

2030
01:31:42,560 --> 01:31:43,960
deep and I had to play other seven at a

2031
01:31:43,960 --> 01:31:44,479
certain point.

2032
01:31:44,760 --> 01:31:48,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree. I think you'll know where I'm not yet.

2033
01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:51,319
Speaker 5: There's like a there's like a vo and everything, like

2034
01:31:51,399 --> 01:31:53,960
there's like a like there's like a voiceover and there's

2035
01:31:54,039 --> 01:31:56,000
like a I don't know if it's animated, but there's

2036
01:31:56,039 --> 01:31:56,760
like an ending.

2037
01:31:57,039 --> 01:31:58,600
Speaker 2: I mean, it's getting the room forty six. You know,

2038
01:31:58,680 --> 01:31:59,880
it's the thing I tell you from the beginning.

2039
01:32:00,159 --> 01:32:03,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're not lying about that, Okay, cool? Yeah, Uh,

2040
01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:05,119
y'all keep playing that. I'd love to do a spoiler

2041
01:32:05,159 --> 01:32:08,800
cast some point. All right, you wanna you want to

2042
01:32:08,840 --> 01:32:13,279
talk about emails? Sure, yeah, let's talk about yeah, okay, cool. Yeah.

2043
01:32:13,399 --> 01:32:16,359
Speaker 4: So crazy that they used to like be like you

2044
01:32:16,479 --> 01:32:19,479
are in so much trouble at this company and then

2045
01:32:19,520 --> 01:32:21,399
they would stamp it and put it in the mail.

2046
01:32:21,640 --> 01:32:26,359
Speaker 2: Yeah you get it. Yeah, flee the country by that point. Yeah,

2047
01:32:27,199 --> 01:32:28,920
I could be it. I could be in I could

2048
01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:31,960
be in fucking Guadaloupe by that point.

2049
01:32:32,920 --> 01:32:33,920
Speaker 3: You don't know where I'm going.

2050
01:32:34,319 --> 01:32:39,279
Speaker 1: We don't. We'll talk about emails all right, as usual.

2051
01:32:39,399 --> 01:32:42,119
You can write into firescape cast at gmail dot com.

Get those questions comments in, mainly questions. Uh, We've we've

2053
01:32:47,479 --> 01:32:49,239
got a pretty deep well most of the time, but

2054
01:32:49,399 --> 01:32:51,920
we've been running through a bunch of them. Dan and

2055
01:32:52,079 --> 01:32:54,720
Mike and Jeff I think did like eight on their episode.

2056
01:32:54,800 --> 01:32:58,159
So keep filling up that inbox with questions for the show.

2057
01:32:58,239 --> 01:33:01,960
We might read it if we like enough. Mary, can

2058
01:33:02,000 --> 01:33:04,880
you read this one? From? This is from Jeffrey, Mary,

2059
01:33:04,960 --> 01:33:09,079
I believe also like a Kanini fan, so long time

2060
01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:10,560
fire Escape as well.

2061
01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:13,199
Speaker 4: But coo you an apology? Okay, here we go.

2062
01:33:14,640 --> 01:33:18,199
Speaker 5: Earlier tonight, I ordered my kids and our sitter the

2063
01:33:18,319 --> 01:33:21,119
nude Dominoes stuff Cruss pizza, which.

2064
01:33:20,920 --> 01:33:23,600
Speaker 4: Apparently only comes out in medium. I didn't know that.

2065
01:33:24,800 --> 01:33:26,800
Whatever I had a slice, it was good. I went

2066
01:33:26,840 --> 01:33:29,479
out for drinks, et cetera, et cetera, YadA, YadA.

2067
01:33:29,600 --> 01:33:33,920
Speaker 5: Anyway, I got home and leftover room temp slice of

2068
01:33:34,039 --> 01:33:37,720
aforementioned pizza, and goddamn it, if that room temp pizza

2069
01:33:37,880 --> 01:33:40,279
was the best fucking thing I ate all day.

2070
01:33:40,399 --> 01:33:42,439
Speaker 4: It was even more memorable than when it was hot.

2071
01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:45,239
Speaker 5: What are other foods that are better at room temp

2072
01:33:45,319 --> 01:33:48,000
after they've been left out than when they are fresh?

2073
01:33:48,239 --> 01:33:50,199
Speaker 4: Jeffrey, Oh, really.

2074
01:33:50,039 --> 01:33:52,279
Speaker 1: Quick, because I know, Dan, you've got some stuff locked

2075
01:33:52,279 --> 01:33:56,399
and loaded. I got an idea or Jeffrey, I want

2076
01:33:56,439 --> 01:33:58,840
to clarify something in this email, because what it sounds

2077
01:33:58,960 --> 01:34:02,359
like is he had a sitter come over right to

2078
01:34:02,479 --> 01:34:04,239
go out for the night. So the sitter is gonna

2079
01:34:04,239 --> 01:34:06,359
watch the kids, so he ordered pizza for the kids

2080
01:34:06,399 --> 01:34:06,840
in the sitter.

2081
01:34:07,399 --> 01:34:10,600
Speaker 3: Oh, positing that maybe you just got home.

2082
01:34:10,520 --> 01:34:13,000
Speaker 1: After a couple of drinky poos and anything you were

2083
01:34:13,039 --> 01:34:16,880
gonna eat really good. No, and I'm growning on that this.

2084
01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:18,640
Speaker 2: Is a good pizza. I'm telling you I had.

2085
01:34:18,760 --> 01:34:20,920
Speaker 1: I had two Domino's pizzas this week, and I have

2086
01:34:21,079 --> 01:34:22,159
two Dominos pizzas.

2087
01:34:22,239 --> 01:34:23,039
Speaker 3: I'm a thin crust.

2088
01:34:23,079 --> 01:34:25,399
Speaker 1: It's got a like the cardboard thin crust, and I

2089
01:34:25,520 --> 01:34:28,800
mean it's it's cardboard cracker crust. Yeah, that's what I got.

2090
01:34:29,039 --> 01:34:31,640
So it was judging. I'm just saying it was a

2091
01:34:31,680 --> 01:34:34,319
six nine. You can as many things as you want

2092
01:34:34,399 --> 01:34:36,359
for six ninety nine from this list. So I got

2093
01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:40,119
the parmesan uh stuff crust with a bacon on one

2094
01:34:40,159 --> 01:34:41,920
half pepperoni and the other half. And then for the

2095
01:34:41,960 --> 01:34:44,399
other medium pizza, I got my thin crust barbecue with

2096
01:34:44,520 --> 01:34:45,159
ranch tip. Thing.

2097
01:34:45,399 --> 01:34:47,000
Speaker 3: It sounds it all sounds delicious.

2098
01:34:47,039 --> 01:34:49,319
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. Yeah, I don't fall you for it.

2099
01:34:49,359 --> 01:34:49,960
Speaker 3: But what's a yeah?

2100
01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:52,079
Speaker 1: Okay, So to answer the question, what is something that

2101
01:34:52,119 --> 01:34:57,000
tastes better room temp after it's cooled off on crustables? Okay,

2102
01:34:57,439 --> 01:35:01,520
wait those already be now they come from the freezer,

2103
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:04,439
and then you'll leave them out for like forty five minutes.

2104
01:35:04,600 --> 01:35:06,359
Speaker 4: Right you don't pressure?

2105
01:35:07,039 --> 01:35:09,319
Speaker 2: Well, am I wrong? Then that they're better at room.

2106
01:35:11,119 --> 01:35:13,560
Speaker 1: He specifically says, so, what are other foods that are

2107
01:35:13,640 --> 01:35:16,720
better at room temperature? Then they've then let at left

2108
01:35:16,760 --> 01:35:21,079
out than when they are fresh, like hot Halo top,

2109
01:35:22,279 --> 01:35:24,760
Halo top the ice cream. You just did the same

2110
01:35:24,840 --> 01:35:26,960
thing with our heads when you said you had.

2111
01:35:26,880 --> 01:35:29,560
Speaker 2: A halo toper the Briars Delights or something.

2112
01:35:29,560 --> 01:35:33,000
Speaker 1: So I was gonna say ice cream when you pull

2113
01:35:33,039 --> 01:35:35,119
ice cream out of the or like we'll eat out

2114
01:35:35,119 --> 01:35:37,800
of like the things. Yeah, yeah, we'll lead out of

2115
01:35:37,840 --> 01:35:41,199
the cartons, the tolenty also like even sorbet, when it

2116
01:35:41,319 --> 01:35:43,439
melts a bit and it gets that little like puddle

2117
01:35:43,479 --> 01:35:45,159
around the edges, then it gets better.

2118
01:35:45,319 --> 01:35:46,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, ice cream was mine.

2119
01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:49,119
Speaker 2: You gotta be patient. You give it at least ten minutes.

2120
01:35:49,319 --> 01:35:51,199
Speaker 3: Or just breathe really hard on it.

2121
01:35:51,560 --> 01:35:53,279
Speaker 2: You mean microwave for like ten seconds to kind of

2122
01:35:53,359 --> 01:35:53,840
kick started.

2123
01:35:53,960 --> 01:35:59,880
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, there's methods, there's there's ways. Yeah, there's there's

2124
01:36:00,199 --> 01:36:03,640
be a few things too. I would actually say, like

2125
01:36:04,119 --> 01:36:06,640
this is a sopranos thing I would say ZD. Like

2126
01:36:06,800 --> 01:36:10,359
pasta involving cheese, I would say it's better once it's

2127
01:36:10,439 --> 01:36:12,119
cooled off a bit and the cheese gets a bit

2128
01:36:12,239 --> 01:36:14,239
chewier and kind of quag like.

2129
01:36:14,279 --> 01:36:17,680
Speaker 2: That's the thing with pizza too. It's super hot, let

2130
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:19,159
it sit for it.

2131
01:36:19,760 --> 01:36:22,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, and what I mean to avoid burning, I mean,

2132
01:36:22,279 --> 01:36:25,119
I just think the texture of like ZD or lasagna

2133
01:36:25,279 --> 01:36:26,920
is better once the cheese is cooled off, because the

2134
01:36:27,000 --> 01:36:29,760
cheese is incorporated into the actual dome much better.

2135
01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:31,439
Speaker 2: Mac and cheese is the same way. It'll be a

2136
01:36:31,479 --> 01:36:32,359
little soup if you.

2137
01:36:32,399 --> 01:36:34,520
Speaker 4: Do it right away, say mac and cheese.

2138
01:36:35,119 --> 01:36:38,000
Speaker 5: I personally, when I make mac and cheese, I usually

2139
01:36:38,800 --> 01:36:40,920
put it in the fridge or just leave it around.

2140
01:36:41,640 --> 01:36:44,640
And just like pizza, I think mac and cheese is

2141
01:36:44,880 --> 01:36:49,680
better the second eating. It's just had time to marinate

2142
01:36:49,800 --> 01:36:54,720
a lot of pasta there adding its flavors.

2143
01:36:55,840 --> 01:36:57,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. To that point, I would actually say, this is

2144
01:36:58,039 --> 01:37:01,640
not exactly the question. I would say most braised or

2145
01:37:01,800 --> 01:37:04,800
like stewed food. I would say most stews are better

2146
01:37:05,279 --> 01:37:07,960
once they've sat in the fridge overnight and the flavors

2147
01:37:08,039 --> 01:37:09,600
incorporate way more.

2148
01:37:10,039 --> 01:37:13,199
Speaker 5: You usually want to reheat those. It's a bit someone,

2149
01:37:13,399 --> 01:37:16,000
but like it's mac and cheese. I actually will eat

2150
01:37:16,039 --> 01:37:18,680
cold from the fridge and it's fucking delicious.

2151
01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:19,800
Speaker 4: It's still good.

2152
01:37:20,159 --> 01:37:23,720
Speaker 2: But also mac and cheese just microwaved is very good. Still,

2153
01:37:23,840 --> 01:37:26,600
like it's very reheatable. Like there's some stuff like French fries.

2154
01:37:26,640 --> 01:37:28,880
You never want a microwave that sucks ass. The Airfriyer's

2155
01:37:28,880 --> 01:37:30,520
the only way that makes it even decent. Even even

2156
01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:33,640
that's kind of a pale imitation a pizza, Like I

2157
01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:36,640
air fried so much that Domino's and it was like

2158
01:37:36,880 --> 01:37:39,720
better the second time around. Taco Bell is extremely good

2159
01:37:39,800 --> 01:37:41,880
air fried, Like oh yeah, but.

2160
01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:44,680
Speaker 4: Can you have Taco bell room tem and be like

2161
01:37:44,800 --> 01:37:46,600
that is better than when it keep better.

2162
01:37:46,960 --> 01:37:50,199
Speaker 2: It's good, but it's it's not going to be better, no, okay.

2163
01:37:50,239 --> 01:37:53,079
Speaker 3: I have one that are better when they've cooled off

2164
01:37:53,119 --> 01:37:53,760
than if they're hot.

2165
01:37:54,159 --> 01:37:55,680
Speaker 4: I think that's true too, and I think it's just

2166
01:37:55,760 --> 01:37:57,439
because they're two hots.

2167
01:37:58,640 --> 01:37:59,520
Speaker 3: Chew in my dessert.

2168
01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:03,880
Speaker 5: I have definitely every time I like go to Buffalo

2169
01:38:03,960 --> 01:38:08,000
Wild Wings or like any sports bra bra sports we

2170
01:38:08,079 --> 01:38:12,039
actually we have a sports bar in uh in Portland

2171
01:38:12,119 --> 01:38:14,760
called the sports Bra and it's a Women's Sports bar.

2172
01:38:15,239 --> 01:38:17,960
Speaker 4: Wow, it's very funn that.

2173
01:38:18,439 --> 01:38:22,279
Speaker 1: I don't know why I these Angels and Kaitlyn Clark

2174
01:38:22,359 --> 01:38:22,800
face off.

2175
01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:24,680
Speaker 3: So you have you been seeing the ship, dude?

2176
01:38:24,840 --> 01:38:26,000
Speaker 4: I can't get enough of it.

2177
01:38:26,239 --> 01:38:27,319
Speaker 3: Every time the face off.

2178
01:38:27,359 --> 01:38:30,760
Speaker 1: Apparently it's like they break a new record, every viewership record,

2179
01:38:30,800 --> 01:38:33,000
every time they play. They hate each other and it's

2180
01:38:33,439 --> 01:38:37,920
the same team. No, Dan, this is like w W level,

2181
01:38:38,039 --> 01:38:41,680
like like drama gets played up, Magic Johnson Larry Bird thing.

2182
01:38:41,840 --> 01:38:43,960
Speaker 5: If one of them like touches the other one, they're like,

2183
01:38:44,119 --> 01:38:48,039
that's a foul each other and they and they and

2184
01:38:48,119 --> 01:38:49,039
they push each other.

2185
01:38:49,119 --> 01:38:49,600
Speaker 4: It's crazy.

2186
01:38:49,600 --> 01:38:52,039
Speaker 1: Oh wow, there's there's a clip look up like Kitlyn

2187
01:38:52,079 --> 01:38:54,199
Clark Angel Reese the other day. Angel Reese is I

2188
01:38:54,239 --> 01:38:55,920
want to say, like a foot and a half, if

2189
01:38:56,000 --> 01:38:59,600
not even more taller than Kitlyn Clark. They're complete different positions,

2190
01:39:00,119 --> 01:39:02,439
but they like they know each other from college ball,

2191
01:39:03,520 --> 01:39:08,319
like so so oh Angel is that? Okay? I didn't

2192
01:39:08,319 --> 01:39:08,479
know that.

2193
01:39:08,760 --> 01:39:10,720
Speaker 2: I recon the name because there's a McDonald's and I

2194
01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:12,399
think there's an Angel Reconal and.

2195
01:39:12,359 --> 01:39:13,880
Speaker 3: They're blown up. They're getting sponsorships.

2196
01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:17,760
Speaker 2: You probably a ceial Okay, the Angel Rees Special and

2197
01:39:17,800 --> 01:39:19,600
then Kaitlyn Clark I think I saw on SNL, so

2198
01:39:19,640 --> 01:39:20,720
I think I'm familiar with her too.

2199
01:39:20,840 --> 01:39:24,319
Speaker 1: Angel Reese was LS she plays for the Sky, but yeah,

2200
01:39:24,359 --> 01:39:25,279
she played for LSU.

2201
01:39:25,479 --> 01:39:28,640
Speaker 3: So, but yeah, Kaitlyn Clark just.

2202
01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:31,000
Speaker 1: Like comes in w n b A and all these

2203
01:39:31,319 --> 01:39:35,119
all these athletes when she got there last year were like, hey, welcome.

2204
01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:38,000
They're tossing her. I mean, she's really fucking good, but

2205
01:39:38,039 --> 01:39:40,520
they're tossing her around, like, hey welcome. This is a

2206
01:39:40,600 --> 01:39:43,560
much more physical league. So I think this like she's

2207
01:39:43,720 --> 01:39:45,800
just I mean, were there only two games in or whatever,

2208
01:39:45,920 --> 01:39:48,039
but first game of the season they played like these

2209
01:39:48,119 --> 01:39:50,640
two rival players played and like Angel Reese caught a

2210
01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:53,640
rebound and Caitlyn Clark like threw her and then she got.

2211
01:39:53,640 --> 01:39:54,159
Speaker 3: Up and start off.

2212
01:39:54,159 --> 01:39:57,319
Speaker 2: It's been it's been awesome, dramatic.

2213
01:39:57,840 --> 01:40:00,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, but what why did how the fuck are talking

2214
01:40:00,279 --> 01:40:00,520
about this?

2215
01:40:00,560 --> 01:40:01,399
Speaker 2: Why did you bring this up?

2216
01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:07,720
Speaker 1: Mary? Uh? Yeah? I think, I mean, and then I just.

2217
01:40:07,760 --> 01:40:10,079
Speaker 2: Heard now do we get there?

2218
01:40:10,319 --> 01:40:11,680
Speaker 3: Taco Bell sponsorship?

2219
01:40:11,760 --> 01:40:13,720
Speaker 2: No, that was after how do we go from fast

2220
01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:16,119
food and microwaving stuff to women's basketball?

2221
01:40:16,600 --> 01:40:21,439
Speaker 1: I don't know what the fucked I said, We'll roll

2222
01:40:21,520 --> 01:40:24,800
back the tape. I'll figure it out on sports bra Ah,

2223
01:40:25,199 --> 01:40:27,760
that's it. Oh they only play women's sports. Yes, sounds

2224
01:40:27,800 --> 01:40:30,039
like they're probably busy these days anyway.

2225
01:40:30,239 --> 01:40:33,680
Speaker 5: So the sports bar where I go anytime I'm doing

2226
01:40:34,199 --> 01:40:38,359
sports bars and I want to have food, I always order,

2227
01:40:38,920 --> 01:40:42,000
always order fried pickles if they are in the form

2228
01:40:42,239 --> 01:40:46,640
of discs, not spears. And fried pickles are straight up

2229
01:40:46,840 --> 01:40:49,319
better if they've cooled off in a room temp.

2230
01:40:49,399 --> 01:40:50,079
Speaker 4: They just are.

2231
01:40:50,319 --> 01:40:53,439
Speaker 5: They're too fucking hot, their little lava bombs. You don't

2232
01:40:53,479 --> 01:40:56,680
want any of that. You just have to wait until

2233
01:40:56,720 --> 01:40:59,600
they're about like warm room temp. And that's when they're

2234
01:40:59,680 --> 01:41:02,199
like their sweet spot, like a juicy lucy.

2235
01:41:03,319 --> 01:41:05,520
Speaker 4: Juicy Lucy's are that's so you don't.

2236
01:41:05,399 --> 01:41:09,560
Speaker 1: Melt your mouth though. That's I don't have the option

2237
01:41:09,680 --> 01:41:14,800
of eating them hot. There's a place here that does, uh, Dana,

2238
01:41:15,359 --> 01:41:17,760
I don't know if you've been. No, I don't think

2239
01:41:17,800 --> 01:41:19,119
you would have been, But there's a place does like

2240
01:41:19,199 --> 01:41:22,119
fried zucchini alongside their fried pickles. I would.

2241
01:41:22,319 --> 01:41:24,359
Speaker 3: I would also argue to agree.

2242
01:41:24,119 --> 01:41:28,439
Speaker 1: With you Mary that fried pickles when they're super hot,

2243
01:41:29,279 --> 01:41:32,039
the breading and the pickle separate way too easily and

2244
01:41:32,079 --> 01:41:36,000
it becomes two separate things. They're more they're of a

2245
01:41:36,079 --> 01:41:38,319
piece like that, you're gonna bite into it. It's going

2246
01:41:38,399 --> 01:41:40,079
to continue to what what's funny?

2247
01:41:40,119 --> 01:41:40,640
Speaker 2: What did I say?

2248
01:41:40,680 --> 01:41:41,159
Speaker 1: Why you laugh?

2249
01:41:41,640 --> 01:41:42,239
Speaker 4: Of a piece?

2250
01:41:42,640 --> 01:41:44,079
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're cohesive.

2251
01:41:44,680 --> 01:41:47,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they're better in the trash can. Not

2252
01:41:47,399 --> 01:41:49,840
a fan of pickles, I don't think so. I think

2253
01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:50,560
I've had them, Mike once.

2254
01:41:51,399 --> 01:41:52,439
Speaker 4: Are so great.

2255
01:41:52,960 --> 01:41:55,720
Speaker 5: You are just like you are so off your game

2256
01:41:55,800 --> 01:41:58,079
when you you talk about flavor and the things that

2257
01:41:58,159 --> 01:41:59,199
are so valuable to you.

2258
01:41:59,560 --> 01:42:01,199
Speaker 4: Pickles are a secret flavor.

2259
01:42:01,399 --> 01:42:02,079
Speaker 3: They just are.

2260
01:42:03,000 --> 01:42:04,000
Speaker 2: There's no way that's true.

2261
01:42:04,479 --> 01:42:08,159
Speaker 5: It's like got salt and like some I love salt,

2262
01:42:08,520 --> 01:42:11,920
pickley flavor, like the sour pickle flavor, chips.

2263
01:42:12,199 --> 01:42:14,439
Speaker 4: And crunch, it's got all good good.

2264
01:42:15,079 --> 01:42:18,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, pickles are top tier snack. I'm telling you.

2265
01:42:18,239 --> 01:42:21,760
Speaker 1: I think this comes back to Granted I never had pickles.

2266
01:42:21,520 --> 01:42:23,680
Speaker 2: But I think it ruined it for me in high

2267
01:42:23,720 --> 01:42:26,000
school or junior high when I worked at funkal Land

2268
01:42:26,119 --> 01:42:30,079
and my assistant manager, Tim would pay for my meal

2269
01:42:30,319 --> 01:42:33,119
if I would drive to McDonald's and I would get

2270
01:42:33,199 --> 01:42:35,600
him a number two, which is the two cheeseburger meal

2271
01:42:35,680 --> 01:42:37,960
with extra pickles. So basically, if I go in there

2272
01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:39,600
and picking it up, I'd get a free meal, but

2273
01:42:39,680 --> 01:42:42,439
that man, my fucking car smelled like Tim's shitty pickles

2274
01:42:42,840 --> 01:42:45,439
all the fucking time in the summer, and I was like,

2275
01:42:45,560 --> 01:42:48,079
fuck pickles, I hate these, But I never had them

2276
01:42:48,159 --> 01:42:48,840
leading up for that either.

2277
01:42:48,920 --> 01:42:52,640
Speaker 5: So I'm just saying I think spite is like very powerful,

2278
01:42:52,760 --> 01:42:55,239
But I just I think you are missing out as

2279
01:42:55,279 --> 01:42:59,279
someone who really likes I don't know, fast food and

2280
01:42:59,439 --> 01:43:03,479
like like just really intense flavor profiles like pickles are

2281
01:43:03,520 --> 01:43:04,279
where it's at.

2282
01:43:04,479 --> 01:43:07,840
Speaker 1: Man, Like I just's I just want meat and cheese

2283
01:43:07,920 --> 01:43:11,399
and bread, like I just anything else, any condiments outside

2284
01:43:11,399 --> 01:43:13,880
of barbecue sauce, which is delicious, is just going to

2285
01:43:13,960 --> 01:43:17,319
distract from the things I love. Yeah, you can focus,

2286
01:43:18,039 --> 01:43:20,319
you can enhance the things you love with like a

2287
01:43:20,399 --> 01:43:22,479
hint of like a hint cues.

2288
01:43:22,720 --> 01:43:24,520
Speaker 2: I feel like it would be insulting to the meat

2289
01:43:24,520 --> 01:43:25,960
and cheese of the quarter pounder if I was like,

2290
01:43:26,039 --> 01:43:27,039
let's put some ketchup on there.

2291
01:43:27,079 --> 01:43:29,119
Speaker 1: I don't think you're giving enough credit to your mouth

2292
01:43:29,319 --> 01:43:31,520
or your brain, Like I think they would both be

2293
01:43:31,720 --> 01:43:33,079
fine with you adding a sligh.

2294
01:43:33,239 --> 01:43:35,439
Speaker 2: Mouth and brain are both great, Thank you very much.

2295
01:43:35,560 --> 01:43:35,840
Speaker 3: They're not.

2296
01:43:35,960 --> 01:43:37,560
Speaker 4: I do you think he gives his brain a lot

2297
01:43:37,600 --> 01:43:39,600
of credit? Maybe too much credit?

2298
01:43:40,319 --> 01:43:42,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you could start putting more stuff in

2299
01:43:42,600 --> 01:43:43,479
your mouth. You'd be fine.

2300
01:43:43,720 --> 01:43:45,479
Speaker 3: Try expand your horizons.

2301
01:43:45,560 --> 01:43:47,359
Speaker 1: But they would just I don't know.

2302
01:43:48,199 --> 01:43:50,199
Speaker 4: I feel like we could do it delicately, like a

2303
01:43:50,399 --> 01:43:54,560
very like put some tiny pickle in there, Lacroix of pickle.

2304
01:43:54,920 --> 01:43:57,479
Speaker 2: If I put a pickle in a pickle in there,

2305
01:43:57,600 --> 01:43:59,439
if I don't like, it's too risky, because if I

2306
01:43:59,560 --> 01:44:02,359
don't like it, then I've ruined a good, perfectly good

2307
01:44:02,439 --> 01:44:03,000
quarter pounders.

2308
01:44:03,000 --> 01:44:05,560
Speaker 3: Okay, so pay another dollar eighty whatever.

2309
01:44:05,600 --> 01:44:06,920
Speaker 2: I can't expend stuff anymore.

2310
01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:11,159
Speaker 1: Use our card, I'll grant, I'll give you can use

2311
01:44:11,239 --> 01:44:13,319
all right, you can door to ash me a pickle

2312
01:44:13,399 --> 01:44:18,039
meal for McDonald's. And two is I want to order

2313
01:44:18,159 --> 01:44:22,039
like five burgers or whatever. You know, five quarter pounders

2314
01:44:22,279 --> 01:44:25,720
and three of them are gonna have pickles. I mean

2315
01:44:25,840 --> 01:44:27,800
it would be the scales would be tilted in your

2316
01:44:27,800 --> 01:44:29,880
favor because you could tell which ones have pickles in them,

2317
01:44:30,039 --> 01:44:32,119
so you'd like automatically say I don't like this one,

2318
01:44:32,159 --> 01:44:32,640
but I want.

2319
01:44:32,520 --> 01:44:35,079
Speaker 2: To I've had five thousand quarter pounders in my life.

2320
01:44:35,479 --> 01:44:38,600
Maybe three of them had barbecue sauce on it. None

2321
01:44:38,680 --> 01:44:40,760
had pickles. You're not a fan of barbecue sauce?

2322
01:44:41,279 --> 01:44:41,880
Speaker 1: No, I like a lot.

2323
01:44:41,920 --> 01:44:43,439
Speaker 2: Now, I'm just saying that, Like, I don't like the

2324
01:44:43,560 --> 01:44:46,880
barbie sauce. Fucking incredible. But you're a quarter pounder. It's

2325
01:44:46,920 --> 01:44:49,239
a city, and you don't like barbecue sauce. You're in.

2326
01:44:49,720 --> 01:44:52,079
Speaker 1: I've had, so I'll chug barbecue sauce.

2327
01:44:52,319 --> 01:44:54,319
Speaker 3: Oh my god, dam doesn't like barbecue sauce.

2328
01:44:54,359 --> 01:44:55,000
Speaker 1: This is crazy.

2329
01:44:55,399 --> 01:44:57,960
Speaker 2: I'm saying. I don't want to distract from the meat,

2330
01:44:58,000 --> 01:45:01,039
the cheese, the bread. The ratio of the quarter is pristine.

2331
01:45:01,159 --> 01:45:03,239
It is perfect, and to put anything else on there

2332
01:45:03,279 --> 01:45:04,600
would do it at a service.

2333
01:45:04,960 --> 01:45:06,359
Speaker 4: It enhances the cheese.

2334
01:45:06,479 --> 01:45:08,199
Speaker 2: How do you know that if you haven't tried it

2335
01:45:08,319 --> 01:45:10,680
with common stuff? It's common sense?

2336
01:45:13,159 --> 01:45:16,079
Speaker 1: Okay, no, But to that end, did you ever have

2337
01:45:16,239 --> 01:45:20,359
anything besides cheese, pizza, meat?

2338
01:45:20,439 --> 01:45:22,760
Speaker 2: I won't do like vegetables and stuff.

2339
01:45:22,880 --> 01:45:25,119
Speaker 1: Right, But you added stuff to the cheese and the

2340
01:45:25,159 --> 01:45:29,119
sauce and the bread again, meat, cheese, bread. That's the combin.

2341
01:45:29,800 --> 01:45:35,760
That's the triforce. Okay, which one's Gannendorf meat? Oh yeah,

2342
01:45:35,800 --> 01:45:37,199
it's an easy one. Which one's link.

2343
01:45:38,479 --> 01:45:43,920
Speaker 2: Uh cheese. Oh, I would have gone bread. I think

2344
01:45:44,000 --> 01:45:44,800
Zeldous cheese.

2345
01:45:44,640 --> 01:45:45,600
Speaker 1: Bread and Zelda's cheese.

2346
01:45:45,640 --> 01:45:47,880
Speaker 2: Oh the blonde hair, well they're both con blonde. Yeah

2347
01:45:48,439 --> 01:45:50,279
whatever because of the blonde hair.

2348
01:45:50,479 --> 01:45:54,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, obviously Zelds cheese, cheese blonde.

2349
01:45:55,760 --> 01:46:01,159
Speaker 2: I can't see a blonde lady without thinking about cheese, Margot, Robbie,

2350
01:46:01,199 --> 01:46:02,079
I'm thinking about.

2351
01:46:03,680 --> 01:46:04,520
Speaker 4: Easy hair.

2352
01:46:07,000 --> 01:46:13,760
Speaker 2: Or you, Natalia, thank you, Jeffrey, Jeffrey, Uh?

2353
01:46:14,000 --> 01:46:17,520
Speaker 1: Dan? Can you read this one? From Nathan Hey?

2354
01:46:17,640 --> 01:46:20,159
Speaker 2: Fire Escape? What are Sometimes you've been surprised by games

2355
01:46:20,279 --> 01:46:22,680
media's reaction to a game. I was told my friend

2356
01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:24,119
a few years ago that I needed to play a

2357
01:46:24,239 --> 01:46:25,359
plague Tail recre.

2358
01:46:26,239 --> 01:46:29,159
Speaker 1: I bened the game over a weekend. To be clear,

2359
01:46:29,239 --> 01:46:31,239
that's not how he spelled it, That's just how Dan

2360
01:46:31,359 --> 01:46:31,880
pronounced it.

2361
01:46:32,039 --> 01:46:36,760
Speaker 2: A Plaguetail recreem ivened the game over a reckroom for

2362
01:46:36,800 --> 01:46:40,159
a dream. I bened the game over a weekend and

2363
01:46:40,279 --> 01:46:43,079
nearly cried at the ending, loved every minute. I was

2364
01:46:43,119 --> 01:46:45,439
surprised to find out most people in games media either

2365
01:46:45,479 --> 01:46:47,079
got bored of it or didn't have any thoughts on

2366
01:46:47,119 --> 01:46:48,840
it at all. Have you had any games that you

2367
01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:51,920
loved or hated, only to find out reviews completely disagreed

2368
01:46:51,920 --> 01:46:52,560
with your opinion.

2369
01:46:52,840 --> 01:46:53,159
Speaker 1: Nathan.

2370
01:46:53,560 --> 01:46:59,199
Speaker 6: Yes, the fucking Walking Dead game that sucks us. That

2371
01:46:59,439 --> 01:47:05,840
everyone just fucking had some nationwide delusion, games of industry

2372
01:47:05,880 --> 01:47:07,760
wide delusion that this is an.

2373
01:47:07,680 --> 01:47:10,840
Speaker 2: Important or good game in any way. It sucks so

2374
01:47:11,119 --> 01:47:13,119
much shit. I said I wouldn't do this anymore after

2375
01:47:13,159 --> 01:47:16,000
death dranting red redemption too, but enough times gone by

2376
01:47:16,199 --> 01:47:18,319
and I still feel like Walking Dead sucks.

2377
01:47:18,560 --> 01:47:18,840
Speaker 1: Shit.

2378
01:47:19,000 --> 01:47:22,119
Speaker 3: The Telltale game, yes, well, there's like five.

2379
01:47:22,560 --> 01:47:24,520
Speaker 1: Well whatever, and one that everyone said was a game

2380
01:47:24,560 --> 01:47:26,439
of the year and everyone's like, you're all losing your

2381
01:47:26,479 --> 01:47:27,159
fucking minds.

2382
01:47:27,720 --> 01:47:28,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, there sucks.

2383
01:47:29,079 --> 01:47:31,039
Speaker 1: There were reviews that are like this gives me the

2384
01:47:31,239 --> 01:47:34,279
sense that everything's about the change, and like, shut up, no,

2385
01:47:35,680 --> 01:47:37,039
I got you in it. I enjoyed it.

2386
01:47:37,079 --> 01:47:38,439
Speaker 3: For the record, I came away from.

2387
01:47:38,359 --> 01:47:40,880
Speaker 4: It being like, all right, too, I don't think it's godie,

2388
01:47:40,960 --> 01:47:41,880
but I thought it was good.

2389
01:47:42,039 --> 01:47:43,640
Speaker 2: A lot of people said that's something.

2390
01:47:43,680 --> 01:47:45,199
Speaker 1: If it just came out and a bunch of like

2391
01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:49,000
visual novel dorks liked it or whatever, I'd be like, Okay, yeah,

2392
01:47:49,000 --> 01:47:50,479
I have a bunch of theater kids like, oh it

2393
01:47:50,560 --> 01:47:51,039
made me cry.

2394
01:47:51,239 --> 01:47:53,800
Speaker 2: Whatever, that's fine, enjoy your shit. I but it's the

2395
01:47:53,880 --> 01:47:55,920
fact that everyone around me was like, this is game

2396
01:47:55,960 --> 01:47:57,399
of the year. It's like, you're all fucking this.

01:48:01,359 --> 01:48:01,720

01:49:44,439 --> 01:49:47,159
Speaker 5: When this game came out, everyone was like, this game

2432
01:49:47,319 --> 01:49:51,439
is so incredible, It's so monumental, Like I cannot believe it.

2433
01:49:51,680 --> 01:49:54,479
This is what uh we don't like the term walking

2434
01:49:54,560 --> 01:49:56,920
sim that's not honest and indicative of like what these

2435
01:49:56,960 --> 01:49:59,159
games are. But it's just like I just walked around

2436
01:49:59,319 --> 01:50:02,600
and ghosts like whispered to me and nothing really interesting happened.

2437
01:50:02,800 --> 01:50:04,520
Speaker 1: Frit Function, you just didn't know.

2438
01:50:06,279 --> 01:50:08,840
Speaker 2: Look, And I'm not anti walking. So I love Gone Home.

2439
01:50:08,920 --> 01:50:09,680
I love you a Finch.

2440
01:50:09,720 --> 01:50:11,880
Speaker 1: All there gonna be really great ones. Edith Finch is

2441
01:50:11,920 --> 01:50:14,079
still my favorite. I think that was awesome. Yeah, but no,

2442
01:50:14,159 --> 01:50:16,319
everybody's gone to the raptures. What are we doing here?

2443
01:50:17,600 --> 01:50:19,439
Speaker 4: I'm over it. I didn't care for that game, and

2444
01:50:19,680 --> 01:50:22,279
it got really high reviews and I was not on board.

2445
01:50:25,279 --> 01:50:25,920
Speaker 1: And there are a few.

2446
01:50:28,119 --> 01:50:29,920
Speaker 2: There were some that I went the other way with

2447
01:50:30,000 --> 01:50:32,680
where I thought, like, I fucking love this game.

2448
01:50:32,880 --> 01:50:35,399
Speaker 4: I got what it came out, Yeah, this would be

2449
01:50:36,239 --> 01:50:36,880
positive ones.

2450
01:50:37,079 --> 01:50:39,840
Speaker 1: This is probably not aged well or not in like

2451
01:50:39,960 --> 01:50:42,920
problematic way I reviewed Far Cry Primal.

2452
01:50:44,279 --> 01:50:45,760
Speaker 3: Remember that Stone.

2453
01:50:45,520 --> 01:50:48,000
Speaker 4: Age, I remember I like that game.

2454
01:50:48,079 --> 01:50:49,680
Speaker 1: I loved that game, I thought, and.

2455
01:50:50,039 --> 01:50:51,880
Speaker 3: It's not like my favorite fucking game.

2456
01:50:51,960 --> 01:50:55,119
Speaker 1: Ever, I don't think about it most times unless someone

2457
01:50:55,159 --> 01:50:59,119
emails a question about games that we had a different

2458
01:50:59,359 --> 01:51:02,119
reaction to. I just loved that, you know, like that

2459
01:51:02,279 --> 01:51:05,159
series was already kind of flagging and getting a bit boring,

2460
01:51:05,279 --> 01:51:08,239
and then they did this okay, Stone Age, and they

2461
01:51:08,359 --> 01:51:11,199
resisted the urge to ever make you feel overpowered until

2462
01:51:11,239 --> 01:51:12,119
pretty late in the game.

2463
01:51:12,159 --> 01:51:13,880
Speaker 2: I thought that was actually pretty rad, and like they

2464
01:51:13,960 --> 01:51:14,720
had the whole night.

2465
01:51:14,680 --> 01:51:18,439
Speaker 1: Time thing where predators are coming out more like fucking

2466
01:51:18,520 --> 01:51:20,720
Saber two tigers are more aggressive at night and trying

2467
01:51:20,720 --> 01:51:21,119
to hunt you.

2468
01:51:21,439 --> 01:51:23,039
Speaker 3: All you have a spear and a sling.

2469
01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:26,760
Speaker 1: I had a tower, like at least people will say

2470
01:51:26,760 --> 01:51:29,920
they're trying to keep this franchise life. And then people

2471
01:51:29,960 --> 01:51:32,359
were like, no, this fucking sucks. I'm like, all right,

2472
01:51:32,920 --> 01:51:35,279
you know tis their own. I'm gonna go fucking throw

2473
01:51:35,359 --> 01:51:40,279
spears at fucking dinosaurs. There's no dinosaurs in the game.

2474
01:51:40,479 --> 01:51:43,760
Oh fire a fire escape or a far Cry with

2475
01:51:43,880 --> 01:51:46,199
dinosaurs would be fair? Would that's a pretty good idea?

2476
01:51:46,279 --> 01:51:47,039
Speaker 4: Would be fun?

2477
01:51:47,279 --> 01:51:47,760
Speaker 1: Is there one?

2478
01:51:48,159 --> 01:51:51,399
Speaker 4: I guess the actually mechanical and so you kind of

2479
01:51:51,439 --> 01:51:53,720
have to like take them down in like a mechanical way.

2480
01:51:54,079 --> 01:51:55,760
Speaker 2: Wait, no, you're describing a boring game.

2481
01:51:58,000 --> 01:51:59,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, like a monster Hunter.

2482
01:52:03,560 --> 01:52:04,439
Speaker 4: Hands on the trolley.

2483
01:52:06,680 --> 01:52:10,600
Speaker 5: There was a game that came out that critically, people

2484
01:52:10,720 --> 01:52:14,079
just ignored it or they didn't say it was very

2485
01:52:14,119 --> 01:52:17,039
favorable that I love that not a lot of people

2486
01:52:17,119 --> 01:52:17,479
know about.

2487
01:52:17,960 --> 01:52:25,520
Speaker 4: And it's trying three. Oh yeah, person trying three slaps.

2488
01:52:25,680 --> 01:52:30,199
It is a three everybody talks about. You know what

2489
01:52:30,359 --> 01:52:31,439
is it called? It takes two?

2490
01:52:31,880 --> 01:52:33,840
Speaker 5: And all these games you have to have two people

2491
01:52:34,279 --> 01:52:36,079
Trying three is the fucking shit.

2492
01:52:36,279 --> 01:52:40,119
Speaker 4: It's three player puzzles and one.

2493
01:52:39,960 --> 01:52:43,479
Speaker 5: Person is a archer, and one person is really strong,

2494
01:52:43,600 --> 01:52:46,800
and one person is a wizard who makes boxes and

2495
01:52:46,960 --> 01:52:47,479
you need to.

2496
01:52:47,560 --> 01:52:49,800
Speaker 4: Use each other to solve all these puzzles.

2497
01:52:50,319 --> 01:52:54,600
Speaker 5: Three people puzzle solving is actually so much fun, and

2498
01:52:54,720 --> 01:52:57,359
you can grief each other and you have to work

2499
01:52:57,439 --> 01:53:00,439
together and collaborate to solve these puzzles. I cannot believe

2500
01:53:00,560 --> 01:53:04,520
everyone slept on this game trying three rocks and everyone

2501
01:53:04,600 --> 01:53:06,800
should play it being pretty good.

2502
01:53:06,880 --> 01:53:09,319
Speaker 1: Yeah, this question is tough for me because every strategy

2503
01:53:09,359 --> 01:53:11,640
game I play that I love, I'm like, why, why

2504
01:53:12,079 --> 01:53:15,439
why don't more people love these games. I routinely stand

2505
01:53:15,520 --> 01:53:17,760
up in the middle of flights and just start shouting

2506
01:53:18,039 --> 01:53:24,039
wilder myth. I really hot on that one. Yeah, yeah,

2507
01:53:24,039 --> 01:53:26,840
it was my game of the year. Yeah twenty one,

2508
01:53:27,399 --> 01:53:28,199
forget what that was.

2509
01:53:30,279 --> 01:53:31,840
Speaker 2: I feel like nobody saves the world.

2510
01:53:32,079 --> 01:53:34,560
Speaker 1: I was remember that.

2511
01:53:35,119 --> 01:53:38,680
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the people who played it. I just don't

2512
01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:41,159
think that many people. It didn't really blow up. I

2513
01:53:41,399 --> 01:53:45,640
also think Returnal, like it's a well liked game and

2514
01:53:45,720 --> 01:53:49,439
it reviewed well, but like I was blown away by

2515
01:53:49,520 --> 01:53:51,760
that game, and I feel like we gave it game

2516
01:53:51,800 --> 01:53:52,119
of the year.

2517
01:53:52,399 --> 01:53:54,039
Speaker 4: You know, it did pretty good.

2518
01:53:54,399 --> 01:53:55,239
Speaker 1: It did pretty good.

2519
01:53:55,319 --> 01:53:57,239
Speaker 2: But like I will talk to people about it, and

2520
01:53:57,279 --> 01:54:00,319
I feel like US three are higher on it than

2521
01:54:00,359 --> 01:54:01,560
maybe the general consensus.

2522
01:54:01,960 --> 01:54:04,520
Speaker 5: I'm like obsessed with that game, but I do think

2523
01:54:04,720 --> 01:54:07,840
I do think it was moderately favorable. I think like

2524
01:54:08,000 --> 01:54:10,800
this is like people forgot about it or they just.

2525
01:54:10,800 --> 01:54:12,159
Speaker 4: Didn't give a shit about it, And.

2526
01:54:12,199 --> 01:54:16,880
Speaker 5: You're like, why didn't more people care about this game?

2527
01:54:17,079 --> 01:54:19,319
Like why didn't more people talk about this game? They

2528
01:54:19,319 --> 01:54:20,680
should have been talking about it.

2529
01:54:21,319 --> 01:54:25,800
Speaker 2: Yep Signalis, Yeah years ago.

2530
01:54:26,319 --> 01:54:28,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, old school kind of stuff.

2531
01:54:28,840 --> 01:54:31,479
Speaker 1: Like, No, that's not the best because, like I guess

2532
01:54:31,560 --> 01:54:35,279
it's literally going for that old school survival horror niche,

2533
01:54:35,279 --> 01:54:38,920
which is just that it's kind of niche today.

2534
01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:44,239
Speaker 4: I see. I'm putting some of these in like Metacritic

2535
01:54:44,359 --> 01:54:46,680
just to be like, does anybody talk about these?

2536
01:54:46,840 --> 01:54:50,239
Speaker 1: Nathan like a Plaguetail Requiem was surprising to me. I

2537
01:54:50,960 --> 01:54:54,800
I wholeheartedly agree with him. That game is awesome. Uh,

2538
01:54:55,000 --> 01:54:59,159
Plaguetail Innocence more people talked about I think that game

2539
01:54:59,359 --> 01:55:01,159
came out and people are like, oh cool, this is

2540
01:55:01,199 --> 01:55:05,239
that Last of Us third person over the shoulder stealth

2541
01:55:05,800 --> 01:55:09,119
combat when you need to really frantic, you're also protecting

2542
01:55:09,239 --> 01:55:12,640
this weaker character next to you. But also the level

2543
01:55:12,680 --> 01:55:14,960
design is such that you know it's encouraging you to

2544
01:55:15,520 --> 01:55:17,479
sneak by when you can, but then using the things

2545
01:55:17,560 --> 01:55:19,880
in your environment to your disposal when you need to

2546
01:55:20,520 --> 01:55:23,399
and then Plaque Out Requiem was in my mind actually

2547
01:55:23,560 --> 01:55:26,319
better in a lot of ways. I don't know, I

2548
01:55:26,479 --> 01:55:29,079
actually think looking back, I want to say it came

2549
01:55:29,159 --> 01:55:32,960
out right before or right after another big game. And

2550
01:55:33,119 --> 01:55:38,319
also it like Microsoft itself, it was a game Pass

2551
01:55:38,439 --> 01:55:41,600
Day one game, and I don't know that Microsoft really

2552
01:55:41,720 --> 01:55:45,640
promoted it all that much. It's a great game, it's

2553
01:55:45,640 --> 01:55:48,119
also pretty creepy in some spots, like they did the

2554
01:55:48,159 --> 01:55:51,920
Horror Well. I think both those games are really really

2555
01:55:51,960 --> 01:55:55,600
good stealth games. I do wish more people talked about

2556
01:55:55,600 --> 01:56:04,560
those still Wild baster Yeah you know what actually, oh yeah,

2557
01:56:04,760 --> 01:56:08,479
Wild Bastards. I saw some reviews come out, and I

2558
01:56:08,560 --> 01:56:09,960
think this was more a case of the game is

2559
01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:12,920
being divisive. I saw some people reviews saying like, this

2560
01:56:13,119 --> 01:56:17,399
is one of my favorite shooters roguelikes since like Returnal Sure,

2561
01:56:17,439 --> 01:56:19,760
and then other people are like, I this is not

2562
01:56:19,920 --> 01:56:22,279
working for me. I don't get it, which again like

2563
01:56:22,720 --> 01:56:26,680
it's not made for everybody. But I remember playing Wild Bastards.

2564
01:56:26,880 --> 01:56:29,199
That was my game of the year last year. Old

2565
01:56:29,279 --> 01:56:31,439
that game, like I was playing hours and hours like

2566
01:56:31,439 --> 01:56:32,319
Big Chunks at a time.

2567
01:56:32,399 --> 01:56:36,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, uh I that was my favorite game last

2568
01:56:36,159 --> 01:56:37,560
year and a lot of people didn't like it.

2569
01:56:38,359 --> 01:56:38,960
Speaker 1: That's a great one.

2570
01:56:39,439 --> 01:56:43,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a lot of times sometimes people sleep on

2571
01:56:43,239 --> 01:56:43,800
the good ones.

2572
01:56:44,000 --> 01:56:47,760
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think if there's anything I really disliked

2573
01:56:47,800 --> 01:56:50,000
that a lot of people liked that, I'm like, I don't,

2574
01:56:50,359 --> 01:56:51,079
I don't get it.

2575
01:56:52,399 --> 01:56:53,199
Speaker 3: There probably is one.

2576
01:56:53,880 --> 01:56:54,920
Speaker 4: There's probably a lot.

2577
01:56:55,039 --> 01:56:57,359
Speaker 5: I think we could do like an entire episode dedicated

2578
01:56:57,439 --> 01:57:00,520
towards like we disagree with the masses and you're wrong,

2579
01:57:01,760 --> 01:57:03,600
And I think that would be pretty fun. I think

2580
01:57:03,640 --> 01:57:05,319
there's like a lot of sleepers where I was like,

2581
01:57:05,399 --> 01:57:07,840
I can't believe no one ever played this game, Like

2582
01:57:07,920 --> 01:57:11,159
it's a bummer that like the world just didn't pay attention.

2583
01:57:11,479 --> 01:57:14,920
Speaker 4: And what was that game that I was like fucking

2584
01:57:15,000 --> 01:57:18,039
raving about no one ever played it? Snackbird, Snickbird is

2585
01:57:18,159 --> 01:57:21,880
so sick and everybody like nobody played it, nobody.

2586
01:57:21,680 --> 01:57:25,199
Speaker 5: Talks about it, Like I tried to sell this bird,

2587
01:57:25,359 --> 01:57:27,560
Like this bird. I tried to sell this game like crazy.

2588
01:57:27,640 --> 01:57:31,680
Speaker 4: It's a fantastic puzzle game and it's got such a

2589
01:57:31,720 --> 01:57:34,319
good gimmick, and I think to the people who did

2590
01:57:34,359 --> 01:57:36,880
play it like it, but it's I don't think enough

2591
01:57:36,920 --> 01:57:39,560
people really knew about it. And that was a bummer.

2592
01:57:40,159 --> 01:57:40,960
The world was wrong.

2593
01:57:41,439 --> 01:57:43,439
Speaker 2: I bet hundreds of people played the game that wouldn't

2594
01:57:43,439 --> 01:57:45,239
have normally because you were advocating for it.

2595
01:57:45,479 --> 01:57:47,680
Speaker 4: Thank you. I mean that actually does make me feel good.

2596
01:57:47,720 --> 01:57:50,840
I would like to I would like more people to.

2597
01:57:51,159 --> 01:57:52,560
Maybe that's like one of the good things that this

2598
01:57:52,640 --> 01:57:54,680
podcast can do. But I hope like more people are

2599
01:57:54,720 --> 01:57:57,000
able to like try these games. I think I feel

2600
01:57:57,000 --> 01:57:58,880
that way about my streams too. Is I will play

2601
01:57:59,000 --> 01:58:00,920
like some weird obscure your indie game that I feel

2602
01:58:00,920 --> 01:58:02,039
like no one's talking about, and I'll be like, this

2603
01:58:02,119 --> 01:58:05,119
game is so good, why is anyone talking about this?

2604
01:58:05,319 --> 01:58:06,479
I beelly, we got to do that more.

2605
01:58:06,680 --> 01:58:08,439
Speaker 2: That's how I felt with like Delivered All Costs, where

2606
01:58:08,479 --> 01:58:09,720
it's like not a lot of people talking about it,

2607
01:58:09,720 --> 01:58:11,239
and I did a quick look for giant bombs, Like

2608
01:58:11,239 --> 01:58:12,319
I just want to spread the word. This is a

2609
01:58:12,359 --> 01:58:14,239
fun game. You know, it's not mean game of the year,

2610
01:58:14,319 --> 01:58:15,800
It's not going to be getting in tens or anything,

2611
01:58:15,840 --> 01:58:17,760
but like it's a fun time. People just play it.

2612
01:58:18,279 --> 01:58:22,520
Speaker 1: Hero We're all heroes. Yeah, I'm just looking at like

2613
01:58:22,720 --> 01:58:25,680
different sites top fifties the last few years.

2614
01:58:27,920 --> 01:58:30,760
Speaker 5: I know it's fun to look through my Steam history

2615
01:58:30,800 --> 01:58:33,720
when we get these questions too, because I enjoy looking

2616
01:58:33,800 --> 01:58:37,760
at my Steam history and being like, oh shit, remember

2617
01:58:37,800 --> 01:58:40,479
when I played Crawl, which was a four v one

2618
01:58:40,720 --> 01:58:44,880
asymmetrical indie game before asymmetrical games were really a thing,

2619
01:58:45,680 --> 01:58:47,920
such a good game, and people really didn't talk about

2620
01:58:47,960 --> 01:58:50,239
it like I. I love talking about this kind of stuff.

2621
01:58:51,840 --> 01:58:55,800
Speaker 2: All right, all right, all right, let's go on to

2622
01:58:55,840 --> 01:58:56,479
the last question.

2623
01:58:57,840 --> 01:59:02,359
Speaker 1: Nathan, thank you. All right. This is a self indulgent

2624
01:59:02,399 --> 01:59:06,840
one from Pete from Central Coast, Australia, High Fire Escapees.

2625
01:59:06,880 --> 01:59:10,159
Congratulations to Mike becoming a somie. I really enjoyed hearing

2626
01:59:10,199 --> 01:59:12,199
you give some unique wine pairings on an old episode

2627
01:59:12,199 --> 01:59:14,359
and really enjoy the combination of sour patch kids with

2628
01:59:14,439 --> 01:59:17,239
a crisp Chardonnaye. I was hoping you could help me

2629
01:59:17,279 --> 01:59:19,119
with some pairings for some of the complete garbage I

2630
01:59:19,159 --> 01:59:21,279
eat now that you're a certified saw me a hopefully

2631
01:59:21,279 --> 01:59:23,199
without receiving a bill in the mail or without having

2632
01:59:23,239 --> 01:59:25,319
the wine police kicking down your door to evoke you're

2633
01:59:25,319 --> 01:59:28,680
selly at powers. All right, he did a few like

2634
01:59:29,560 --> 01:59:31,680
I don't know it, clearly. I think it's going for

2635
01:59:31,880 --> 01:59:34,399
like more low brow junk food, which I'm fully on

2636
01:59:34,479 --> 01:59:34,760
board with.

2637
01:59:34,840 --> 01:59:35,680
Speaker 3: That's some of my favorite.

2638
01:59:36,199 --> 01:59:39,359
Speaker 2: All Right, cheese and sweet chili on toast.

2639
01:59:40,560 --> 01:59:43,279
Speaker 3: Is that an Australian thing? Sounds good, don't get.

2640
01:59:43,199 --> 01:59:43,720
Speaker 2: It really good.

2641
01:59:43,880 --> 01:59:47,560
Speaker 4: Sweet chili sauce is very Australian, although you usually put

2642
01:59:47,600 --> 01:59:50,239
it on fries like sweet chili and sour cream.

2643
01:59:50,560 --> 01:59:53,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, cheese and sweet chili sauce on toast. I'm saying

2644
01:59:54,000 --> 01:59:57,840
between the cheese, which is gonna be fatty, and the

2645
01:59:58,439 --> 02:00:00,880
chili sauce, which I would imagine some sort of heat

2646
02:00:01,000 --> 02:00:02,880
or spice, and if it doesn't, that's fine. Out go

2647
02:00:03,000 --> 02:00:05,920
gome go boujela, go like more full bodied one like

2648
02:00:06,000 --> 02:00:08,560
more gone or milanavant I. I would say more gone

2649
02:00:08,640 --> 02:00:11,760
like cote to p from Jean Foyard. Can't go wrong,

2650
02:00:12,319 --> 02:00:15,319
You know any of these words? Beef jerky, okay, so,

2651
02:00:15,439 --> 02:00:17,960
cheese and sweet chili sauce. Look up more gone m

2652
02:00:18,079 --> 02:00:20,760
R R G O N from beaujel a more gone

2653
02:00:21,720 --> 02:00:23,359
beef jerky. Hmm.

2654
02:00:24,079 --> 02:00:25,439
Speaker 3: There's a lot of ways you can go with that.

2655
02:00:25,520 --> 02:00:28,119
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Cabernet franc from the Lais Valley go

2656
02:00:28,359 --> 02:00:30,600
like a chinon c ch I N o n it's

2657
02:00:30,680 --> 02:00:33,640
gonna have some good like deeper fruit notes, but it's

2658
02:00:33,640 --> 02:00:35,399
also gonna have a bit of spice, a bit of like,

2659
02:00:35,600 --> 02:00:37,279
uh like green notes to it.

2660
02:00:37,359 --> 02:00:38,199
Speaker 3: That'll go really well.

2661
02:00:38,439 --> 02:00:42,840
Speaker 1: String cheese and pickles, that's the first challenging one, because

2662
02:00:42,880 --> 02:00:47,479
anything super acidic like pickles, which inherently are just pickled like,

2663
02:00:47,560 --> 02:00:49,239
which means they're Yeah.

2664
02:00:49,279 --> 02:00:52,079
Speaker 3: I agree, string cheese though, that's fatty. And then you

2665
02:00:52,199 --> 02:00:52,960
got pickles that.

2666
02:00:53,039 --> 02:00:55,600
Speaker 4: Are pairs really well with a cheeseburger.

2667
02:00:57,000 --> 02:00:58,560
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with.

2668
02:01:00,159 --> 02:01:01,960
Speaker 3: One of my cheat ones, and I would say go

2669
02:01:02,159 --> 02:01:02,640
with a.

2670
02:01:05,560 --> 02:01:05,600
Speaker 2: No.

2671
02:01:05,680 --> 02:01:06,760
Speaker 3: Actually, I'm gonna change that.

2672
02:01:07,359 --> 02:01:10,640
Speaker 1: Let's go. I'm gonna throw a curveball Central Otago pin

2673
02:01:10,840 --> 02:01:12,319
noir from uh New Zealand.

2674
02:01:13,159 --> 02:01:14,479
Speaker 3: That's gonna be crazy.

2675
02:01:14,640 --> 02:01:18,000
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I'm gonna it's it's I'm fucking

2676
02:01:18,079 --> 02:01:19,079
feeling like a rebel today.

2677
02:01:19,239 --> 02:01:20,840
Speaker 2: My dad's yelling in this car right now.

2678
02:01:20,960 --> 02:01:23,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Central Otago, What the hell is this kid thinking of?

2679
02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:27,279
Speaker 4: He should have picked up fair.

2680
02:01:27,199 --> 02:01:29,840
Speaker 1: Bosele is the easiest pairing for most foods, but uh yeah,

2681
02:01:29,920 --> 02:01:32,600
string cheese and pickles. I think Central Otago, New Zealand

2682
02:01:33,319 --> 02:01:36,119
is gonna gonna do you well. It's gonna be really fresh,

2683
02:01:36,159 --> 02:01:37,800
but there's gonna be enough oak on it to help

2684
02:01:37,840 --> 02:01:41,760
with that string cheese. Seaweed rice crackers dipped and ketch up.

2685
02:01:41,800 --> 02:01:48,079
What the fuck? Uh? Seaweed rice crackers. I'm trying to

2686
02:01:48,079 --> 02:01:50,359
figure that out. Are they predominantly seaweed or are they

2687
02:01:50,439 --> 02:01:51,920
rice crackers of seaweed on them?

2688
02:01:54,039 --> 02:01:59,600
Speaker 4: I mean the seaweed snacks that I like, hell them

2689
02:01:59,640 --> 02:02:00,680
and there's solocal.

2690
02:02:01,000 --> 02:02:02,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can just chomp down on, like, you know,

2691
02:02:02,680 --> 02:02:03,640
twenty those and feel like.

2692
02:02:03,680 --> 02:02:05,319
Speaker 4: You have as many as you want.

2693
02:02:05,760 --> 02:02:06,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2694
02:02:06,279 --> 02:02:09,880
Speaker 2: Dipped in salty yeah, oh okay.

2695
02:02:10,039 --> 02:02:13,920
Speaker 1: Dipped in ketchup though? How about at Narrusso it's from

2696
02:02:13,960 --> 02:02:17,520
the volcanic slopes in Sicily, I love it. Norello Mascalasa.

2697
02:02:17,600 --> 02:02:20,039
Maybe a little capuccio in there, like a nice blend.

2698
02:02:20,680 --> 02:02:22,439
Speaker 4: Hey, you gotta get yourself a capuccio.

2699
02:02:22,800 --> 02:02:24,079
Speaker 3: Ketchup is going to be acidic.

2700
02:02:24,159 --> 02:02:26,000
Speaker 1: It's just straight up tomatoes and there's gonna be some

2701
02:02:26,079 --> 02:02:28,439
vinegar involved as far as I know how ketchup is made.

2702
02:02:28,479 --> 02:02:30,159
So you want something more acidic, So I would say

2703
02:02:30,239 --> 02:02:32,720
Edna Bianca or sorry, Edna Russo's are going to steer

2704
02:02:32,800 --> 02:02:33,079
your right.

2705
02:02:33,159 --> 02:02:35,319
Speaker 2: I would say it's a good thing. This is the

2706
02:02:35,399 --> 02:02:38,119
last email of the show because everyone who's abandoning ship

2707
02:02:38,239 --> 02:02:40,600
right now, you know they heard the most of the episode.

2708
02:02:40,680 --> 02:02:46,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, the most important pieces that they their politics, their

2709
02:02:46,600 --> 02:02:50,680
political views, but they need to know about healthcare systems.

2710
02:02:51,880 --> 02:02:56,880
Speaker 1: Ball of chocolate cereal with our milk, Ball of chocolate

2711
02:02:56,880 --> 02:02:59,479
cereal without milk, chocolate's tricky. I would actually say there's

2712
02:02:59,560 --> 02:03:02,319
like two things I would recommend. I'm gonna say go

2713
02:03:02,520 --> 02:03:06,039
with a go with like a young ruby port with

2714
02:03:06,159 --> 02:03:10,119
that twenty bucks off the shelf, good port, no problem,

2715
02:03:10,560 --> 02:03:16,319
all the Eastern chocolate and marshmallows. I'm gonna you know

2716
02:03:16,399 --> 02:03:19,359
what I'm gonna say for that, you should go with

2717
02:03:19,520 --> 02:03:22,960
a Pedro Jmenez sherry that would go well to chocolate.

2718
02:03:23,159 --> 02:03:25,279
That would also balance out the sweetness and the marshmallows.

2719
02:03:25,319 --> 02:03:27,520
You want something sweeter than the food. You're fine, there

2720
02:03:27,560 --> 02:03:28,159
you go, Pete.

2721
02:03:29,159 --> 02:03:32,880
Speaker 2: Thanks Pete from Central Coast Australia. Can we reverse matrix

2722
02:03:33,000 --> 02:03:34,800
mic and take all this knowledge out of his brain?

2723
02:03:38,159 --> 02:03:41,920
Speaker 4: That'll be fun and then send his award.

2724
02:03:42,720 --> 02:03:46,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh, I'm glad you're following your dreams.

2725
02:03:47,640 --> 02:03:51,960
Speaker 1: It's funny too because the winebar I work at and

2726
02:03:52,039 --> 02:03:54,680
I'm not gonna like it's it's not hard to figure

2727
02:03:54,680 --> 02:03:57,119
out which one I'm at. But it's different now because

2728
02:03:57,199 --> 02:04:00,079
like it's easy enough to say, oh, I'm streaming on

2729
02:04:00,119 --> 02:04:02,479
twitch dot tv, slash and Maharty or whatever. It's a

2730
02:04:02,520 --> 02:04:04,000
different thing for me to say I'm working at this

2731
02:04:04,159 --> 02:04:07,000
physical brick and mortar place. If if you want to

2732
02:04:07,079 --> 02:04:09,880
go look, you could figure it out. But I also

2733
02:04:09,960 --> 02:04:12,680
don't want to just say here's where I am some days,

2734
02:04:12,760 --> 02:04:14,159
come see me there.

2735
02:04:14,439 --> 02:04:15,159
Speaker 2: Make it a puzzle.

2736
02:04:16,039 --> 02:04:17,800
Speaker 1: It's not a puzzle. I just I feel like I'm

2737
02:04:17,840 --> 02:04:20,039
doxing myself if I just say it. It's a place

2738
02:04:20,079 --> 02:04:22,800
where we like you could come in with no wine knowledge,

2739
02:04:22,800 --> 02:04:25,079
and like that's almost just as fun because then you

2740
02:04:25,159 --> 02:04:27,680
don't have to be like the biggest wineficionado there. It's

2741
02:04:27,720 --> 02:04:31,680
just a more laid back place. But I enjoy like

2742
02:04:31,760 --> 02:04:34,239
when people are sort of into wine or sort of

2743
02:04:34,279 --> 02:04:36,239
into just like beverages in general. Like we have a

2744
02:04:36,239 --> 02:04:38,479
lot of cocktail people or like tiki fans come in

2745
02:04:39,000 --> 02:04:41,479
and they say, like, oh, I like, I don't know,

2746
02:04:41,560 --> 02:04:44,000
I like tiki drinks. Where there's a lot of like

2747
02:04:44,119 --> 02:04:47,079
I prefer more like rum heavy with like the nutty flavors.

2748
02:04:47,079 --> 02:04:49,520
I'm like, oh, perfect, let's go something like oxidatum on

2749
02:04:49,560 --> 02:04:50,960
the wine side. I don't say that to them, and

2750
02:04:51,000 --> 02:04:52,600
I'm like, try I bring up three bottles. I'm like,

2751
02:04:53,000 --> 02:04:54,600
let's try these, and they.

2752
02:04:54,520 --> 02:04:55,159
Speaker 3: Do it and they love it.

2753
02:04:55,279 --> 02:04:57,239
Speaker 4: And that's what you say, This goes great with pickles.

2754
02:04:57,760 --> 02:04:59,479
Speaker 1: No, I don't say that because there's no reason to.

2755
02:04:59,520 --> 02:05:01,960
We don't have any pickles there. It's good, okay. I

2756
02:05:02,079 --> 02:05:02,760
like the place you work.

2757
02:05:02,840 --> 02:05:04,560
Speaker 3: I jump up on the bar and then just start

2758
02:05:04,600 --> 02:05:06,319
air humping it' say just right with.

2759
02:05:08,800 --> 02:05:09,079
Speaker 1: All right?

2760
02:05:09,119 --> 02:05:10,079
Speaker 2: One seems pretty cool.

2761
02:05:10,560 --> 02:05:14,000
Speaker 1: There's a low pH when the vines are fucking getting

2762
02:05:14,039 --> 02:05:18,680
through in the winter. God that hurt. Yeah, you guys,

2763
02:05:18,760 --> 02:05:23,560
you two would like it. Yeah, it's despite the name

2764
02:05:23,720 --> 02:05:25,560
what the name of the bar might suggest, it's not

2765
02:05:26,439 --> 02:05:31,479
extremely high brow. It's definitely French oriented. But we also

2766
02:05:31,560 --> 02:05:36,359
have like a Loha Fridays, wheverybody wears tropical shirts. We have. Yeah,

2767
02:05:36,399 --> 02:05:38,800
we have turntables where we come in the winemakers like, okay,

2768
02:05:38,880 --> 02:05:41,880
we give a record. The menu is a literal vinyl record,

2769
02:05:41,920 --> 02:05:43,720
and there's a flight and a B flight and you

2770
02:05:43,920 --> 02:05:45,800
order the A flights, two wines or the b flights

2771
02:05:45,800 --> 02:05:48,039
the other two and then the winemakers walking around they

2772
02:05:48,119 --> 02:05:51,520
get to pick the the playlist for the night. There

2773
02:05:51,640 --> 02:05:55,239
was a guy from barber Esco in Northwest Italy last night.

2774
02:05:55,560 --> 02:05:58,720
Half of his songs were like Empire of the Sun

2775
02:05:59,319 --> 02:06:02,520
or Naked Face miss or read out Chili Peppers, like stuff,

2776
02:06:02,600 --> 02:06:06,159
like relatable stuff. But then he also his other the

2777
02:06:06,239 --> 02:06:11,760
other songs on the playlist were like folksy Italian cafe songs,

2778
02:06:12,159 --> 02:06:14,199
and he would come up to us be like, do

2779
02:06:14,279 --> 02:06:15,039
you speak Italian?

2780
02:06:15,159 --> 02:06:15,960
Speaker 3: Like not at all.

2781
02:06:16,079 --> 02:06:18,600
Speaker 1: He's like, okay, so this song is about a gorilla

2782
02:06:18,960 --> 02:06:21,560
who's a virgin who breaks out of the zoo and

2783
02:06:21,760 --> 02:06:23,960
just is roaming the streets looking for something to fuck.

2784
02:06:23,960 --> 02:06:26,600
I'm like, okay, that doesn't seem like a good idea,

2785
02:06:26,760 --> 02:06:30,279
But nobody there spoke Italian, so it was fine, Mary,

2786
02:06:31,359 --> 02:06:33,760
how long until Mike is studying Italian?

2787
02:06:34,800 --> 02:06:38,359
Speaker 4: I mean he probably already is like secret.

2788
02:06:42,520 --> 02:06:45,840
Speaker 3: Enough to get by, enough to get by.

2789
02:06:46,199 --> 02:06:49,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, he'll announce it when he's like good enough

2790
02:06:49,399 --> 02:06:50,920
where he feels like he can show.

2791
02:06:50,760 --> 02:06:51,439
Speaker 1: It off and like.

2792
02:06:52,960 --> 02:06:56,199
Speaker 2: Italian on this podcast. Yeah yeah, no, of course not.

2793
02:06:58,279 --> 02:06:59,920
Speaker 1: Why do you see him getting there?

2794
02:07:06,359 --> 02:07:09,680
Speaker 2: On the volcanic slopes of this dear mother mountain that

2795
02:07:09,920 --> 02:07:14,560
erupts once every fifty years. Oh, he's brought up mountain

2796
02:07:14,640 --> 02:07:17,439
like this is for you, you know a mountain. No,

2797
02:07:17,560 --> 02:07:19,800
you brought up a mountain. But that Darby Ellen guy

2798
02:07:19,840 --> 02:07:25,039
you liked, the crazy wrestler. Yes, the skateboards he just

2799
02:07:25,199 --> 02:07:31,119
climbed Mount Everest to the summer he was doing. He

2800
02:07:31,239 --> 02:07:33,640
set againness record. He brought a skateboard on the Mount

2801
02:07:33,680 --> 02:07:37,199
Everest and did the world's tallest kickflip. That guy holy

2802
02:07:37,399 --> 02:07:38,640
ship with a psycho.

2803
02:07:39,399 --> 02:07:41,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, the ship he was doing those matches was Yeah,

2804
02:07:42,279 --> 02:07:46,680
is insane, high flying Shenanigan's left and right. He's descending

2805
02:07:46,720 --> 02:07:50,159
Everest right now, he's Oh he's on He's still on

2806
02:07:50,239 --> 02:07:51,760
the mountain right now as we speak. Yeah.

2807
02:07:51,840 --> 02:07:54,640
Speaker 2: No, he's summited like two days ago. Yeah, that's the most.

2808
02:07:54,640 --> 02:07:56,560
Speaker 4: Likely time to die is when you're descending.

2809
02:07:57,000 --> 02:07:58,119
Speaker 1: That's what I've heard. Is it really?

2810
02:07:58,640 --> 02:08:02,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's not on the way, is it?

2811
02:08:02,359 --> 02:08:04,159
Speaker 2: Like you're you're exhausted and everything.

2812
02:08:04,079 --> 02:08:06,840
Speaker 5: Because because you fight so fucking hard to make sure

2813
02:08:06,880 --> 02:08:08,800
you get up there, you don't think about whether or

2814
02:08:08,800 --> 02:08:11,279
not you have enough oxygen or energy to get back down.

2815
02:08:11,359 --> 02:08:12,760
Speaker 4: And so people get to the top and then they

2816
02:08:12,800 --> 02:08:13,520
fucking don't make it.

2817
02:08:15,279 --> 02:08:15,960
Speaker 1: We should do that.

2818
02:08:16,479 --> 02:08:19,000
Speaker 2: We should do like a Patreon thing, we climb Mount Everest.

2819
02:08:19,239 --> 02:08:22,279
Speaker 4: Climbing Everest is like a crazy book. People die all

2820
02:08:22,359 --> 02:08:23,199
the time watching.

2821
02:08:25,319 --> 02:08:31,159
Speaker 2: New Tier every Yeah, okay, okay, Tier, the Everest's.

02:08:40,680 --> 02:08:41,920
Speaker 1: Fully naked? Climb over?

2826
02:08:42,159 --> 02:08:44,159
Speaker 2: I don't think the best mountain climber in the world,

2827
02:08:44,560 --> 02:08:45,720
Edmund Hillary couldn't do it.

2828
02:08:45,960 --> 02:08:50,439
Speaker 5: Think of the articles tallest fucking mountain with the fattest

2829
02:08:50,520 --> 02:08:51,439
fucking ass.

2830
02:08:51,319 --> 02:08:52,039
Speaker 4: You've ever seen.

2831
02:08:52,119 --> 02:08:59,119
Speaker 2: Could you do it? It's possible, right, it's cake and

2832
02:08:59,199 --> 02:09:00,520
it's higher than anybody else.

2833
02:09:01,039 --> 02:09:03,680
Speaker 5: You have so much oxygen going into your system, but

2834
02:09:03,840 --> 02:09:05,760
your cheeks are just out to the sky.

2835
02:09:06,800 --> 02:09:08,000
Speaker 3: Huge ass butt plug.

02:09:15,600 --> 02:09:17,880
Speaker 1: He's like, when was it Hillary?

2839
02:09:18,079 --> 02:09:20,560
Speaker 3: No, it was like I thought it was a Edmund.

2840
02:09:20,600 --> 02:09:22,800
Speaker 2: Hillary is the guy whose gimmick was Clenn Everest, and

2841
02:09:22,840 --> 02:09:24,439
then Hilary Clinton was named after him.

2842
02:09:24,520 --> 02:09:24,600
Speaker 1: Right.

2843
02:09:25,439 --> 02:09:28,720
Speaker 3: When asked why he wanted to climb Mount everest edmon.

2844
02:09:28,800 --> 02:09:30,359
Hillary said, because.

2845
02:09:30,079 --> 02:09:33,520
Speaker 1: It is there, Well, I'm gonna climb it, and I'm

2846
02:09:33,560 --> 02:09:35,800
gonna be naked and my ass is gonna be there.

2847
02:09:36,439 --> 02:09:37,199
Speaker 2: JFK died.

2848
02:09:37,880 --> 02:09:39,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh my god.

2849
02:09:39,319 --> 02:09:41,399
Speaker 3: They kept the he kept a BP in too long.

2850
02:09:45,159 --> 02:09:47,600
Speaker 1: It's still it's still tumbling down the mountain as we speak,

2851
02:09:47,680 --> 02:09:48,840
apparently legend.

2852
02:09:50,159 --> 02:09:53,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, tibet is. Here's the clanging every night.

2853
02:09:54,720 --> 02:09:55,119
Speaker 1: JFK.

2854
02:09:57,600 --> 02:09:59,800
Speaker 4: JFK's butt pluck and.

2855
02:09:59,840 --> 02:10:04,520
Speaker 3: I a voice cried out on the height Excelsior.

2856
02:10:06,880 --> 02:10:07,760
Speaker 2: This is stupid.

2857
02:10:08,399 --> 02:10:10,680
Speaker 1: It was not to shoot us from that grassy knoll.

2858
02:10:11,600 --> 02:10:15,479
It was a defective butt plug that did me in. Wait,

2859
02:10:15,560 --> 02:10:16,560
his ghost is talking.

2860
02:10:17,720 --> 02:10:19,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's dead, but he's speaking to us from the

2861
02:10:19,800 --> 02:10:21,960
afterlife and telling us about the butt plugs. That we

2862
02:10:22,039 --> 02:10:23,760
were barking up the wrong tree the whole time thinking

2863
02:10:23,800 --> 02:10:27,760
about Oswald and the Freemasons. Right, it's the butt plugs.

2864
02:10:28,039 --> 02:10:29,600
Speaker 3: I've had enough of these mysteries.

2865
02:10:30,239 --> 02:10:34,000
Speaker 1: It was Jackie with a butt plug in the Oval office.

2866
02:10:34,279 --> 02:10:35,600
She was in the car with him.

2867
02:10:36,600 --> 02:10:40,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, but she put it in before she grabbed his brain.

2868
02:10:41,600 --> 02:10:42,039
Speaker 4: Jesus.

2869
02:10:46,479 --> 02:10:49,399
Speaker 1: Tactical tactical gaps in off front lines are not the

2870
02:10:49,479 --> 02:10:52,640
only things being plugged in the situation room, my fellow Americans,

2871
02:10:53,880 --> 02:10:55,880
is that it all a decent JFK or No.

2872
02:10:56,000 --> 02:10:58,560
Speaker 2: It's fine. I mean I think by nature view being

2873
02:10:58,640 --> 02:11:01,119
from that general part of the world, I think you've

2874
02:11:01,159 --> 02:11:01,760
got a heads up.

2875
02:11:02,159 --> 02:11:05,399
Speaker 1: It's the same general part Cape Cod is not. I

2876
02:11:05,520 --> 02:11:08,399
wish I wish I was from Syracuse and Cape Cod.

2877
02:11:09,119 --> 02:11:13,000
Oh my god, there's I said, general part of the

2878
02:11:13,079 --> 02:11:13,840
world and country.

2879
02:11:14,199 --> 02:11:18,439
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, Like people are from the northeast, they would

2880
02:11:18,479 --> 02:11:22,359
see New York and Cape God being near each other

2881
02:11:22,680 --> 02:11:23,920
general there.

2882
02:11:23,880 --> 02:11:27,319
Speaker 1: Are five listeners from either Cape Cod or Syracuse are

2883
02:11:27,359 --> 02:11:28,680
gonna hear you have something to say.

2884
02:11:28,760 --> 02:11:30,720
Speaker 3: But I get what you're saying. It's the same corner.

2885
02:11:31,239 --> 02:11:33,359
Speaker 2: You can say. Portland and Seattle are in the same

2886
02:11:33,560 --> 02:11:39,119
general area, even though they're totally different cities. You know, sure, yeah, yeah, sure, yeah.

02:15:47,239 --> 02:15:48,479

then it's true, But.

2978
02:15:50,239 --> 02:15:52,399

02:15:52,600 --> 02:15:56,000
like very scared, like this is a new place, there's dogs.

2980
02:15:56,039 --> 02:15:56,680

Speaker 1: You know? Yeah?

2982
02:15:57,800 --> 02:16:02,399
Speaker 2: And he is fully in full ham cat like just

2983
02:16:03,039 --> 02:16:06,159
just draping himself over things, just like sitting in laps

2984

and it was Boss's first time was surround sound, and

2991
02:16:23,640 --> 02:16:25,279
so Boss was just like sitting on the table in

2992
02:16:25,279 --> 02:16:27,600
front of the couch and just every time there's a

2993

02:16:41,680 --> 02:16:44,479

3000
02:16:44,959 --> 02:16:46,399
like smarter in.

3001
02:16:46,440 --> 02:16:48,760
Speaker 2: A lot of ways, but also idiots.

02:16:58,639 --> 02:16:59,920
endlessly it's just stuff.

3007
02:17:00,040 --> 02:17:02,520
Speaker 2: It's like somebody like there will be a noise outside

3008
02:17:02,719 --> 02:17:05,120
and Razor and Gizmo will just be losing their minds

3009
02:17:05,360 --> 02:17:09,040
sprinting around circles barking and like Boss won't even like

3010
02:17:09,120 --> 02:17:09,760
