Hello everybody, I'm Cax and Cax and Crand and Cacks and Grendor in the morning!
Dude, I don't know, you ever just want to laugh?
All the time, that's how I get through most of my day.
Otherwise I would be a simpering crying fool.
Well that's good.
I don't know, I just had the urge to laugh.
What, at me?
Don't laugh at me, or else I'll become a simple and crying fool.
Oh, that's true. Sorry.
How you doing? It's Easter. Well, it's Easter right now.
It's true. Yeah, it is Easter. Did you celebrate? Did you do anything today?
I asked you first.
Oh, no is the answer no Okay
Yeah, we went to our my parents and they made ham and
Food and we made potatoes and then we had wine we ate food
And then my dad was like check out our water heater. This is a good water heater 40
He just pulled you aside and was like, check out this water heater.
Yes.
He's proud of his water heater. I guess, is it new?
It's like a year old or something, I guess. Yeah.
He just never showed it to you before? This is the time?
He might have. I don't even remember even remember but he's very much the type
of like let me show you I gotta show you something over here I'm like okay he's like the water heater
it's a good one all right guy plumber guy said this is good top of the line top of the line stuff
I'm like all right me you know honestly I'm just proud that he's so happy to have found something like that
not a lot of times you get amusement out of things like water heaters that just means
he's finding little joys in life.
Oh my dad finds a lot of little joys then.
I don't know if that's a good or bad thing now when I think about it.
You know he'll like clean the gutters three times
He'll like They love like selling stuff at flea markets or garage sales
Like very much that or like, you know a new appliance. He's like we got to get a new fridge. This is fridge not good
so
That was the thing
You know and just ate some food
had a good time it was making me think of
my Easter
memories, which like I remember being a kid
and they'd put out the Easter baskets. You ever do that?
Oh yeah, no, we had Easter baskets.
There was a time
where we'd all go to my grandmother's house and it'd be like
all the cousins, everyone.
We'd have our Easter baskets and we'd sit
around and eat candy and I don't know try to figure out why rabbits and eggs and Jesus were
related you know all those things.
Wasn't it like paganism?
Yeah, it's just they appropriated paganism.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, then everyone gets old they're like, oh, whatever.
That's pretty much what it was. I messaged my parents like, are we doing anything tomorrow? And they're like, I don't know.
Didn't you say you were busy? It's like, I don't remember. Anyway,
I'm going to just work on some stuff. Jesus will be fine. He'll be all right.
You were supposed to get brunch for me. You didn't do it. Um,
see, I remember that was always fun. Honestly we need more like adult
Easter bunny like activities. Well about adult Easter basket hunting. I will I
will tell you that today I saw what I thought was adult Easter so I forgot
today is also 420. Just forgot. Yes. So I was driving into the office to you know I
was gonna spend my day getting a bunch of videos edited so I didn't have to do it this week
So I could like focus on getting ready to get stuff done before I have to leave
and
As I'm driving into the office. I
Straight up just see a line of about 30 gray hair. So these aren't kids or like college students
gray haired
Elderly people outside of this
weed shop that's on the way to the office.
And there was already outside a, like a food truck.
I'm not sure what the food was, but there was a food truck and there was a line for
that too.
And I was like, it is 9 a.m.
What the hell?
All right.
And I was like, man, I guess some people celebrate Easter differently.
And then I realized later in the day it was 4 20. I was like, man, I guess some people celebrate Easter differently. And then I realized later in the day it was 420.
I was like, oh, okay.
But for several hours, I just thought there was a group of people
who were like getting high for Jesus.
Sounds like a Facebook group.
It might be. That's how they all met.
I don't know.
I just thought it was really funny because it was a sizable amountable amount of people and I drove by like looked over what the hell. Now I understand
it has nothing to do with Jesus although maybe it did. I don't know. But it was 420 I guess
there was deals and things and you know it's that kind of day. Oh yeah it makes sense.
Yeah so great time. We did see a bunch of people like with Easter baskets out and about
Doing stuff that's fun
Baskets out and about
They're just carrying Easter baskets like hunting for eggs or just like Halloween where they go around they're like
Easter basket me please
They're carrying him like near intersection, so I'm like I don't know why you're hunting for eggs here
Around the intersection kid go get it. Yeah, I don't know
That was the thing and then
Honestly that's pretty much it we saw animals big Easter animal
Stuff ago, and I always my parents had their backyard it's like a bunch of
bird seed it was like birds but squirrels and ducks they're all eating
she guys had like a whole you had like a your own little I don't know what to
call that like nature don't white yeah like you called the animals they came to
you yeah in fact the one squirrel there's a squirrel and a duck and then the squirrels eating and the duck was eating then they got they
stopped and looked at each other like are you gonna attack me and the other
ones like you gonna attack me and I think they realized neither was gonna
attack that they just kept eating yeah yeah yeah so that was cool I was gonna
ask you something completely unrelated,
but it's related to eating.
So I asked my stream this yesterday
out of just the blue for no reason.
Sure.
So how often when you get food out,
do you use the plastic forks that comes with the food?
I rarely will ever do that.
I don't actually ask for them now.
Before they would just give them to you.
I don't know if it's an LA thing or like a California thing,
but now you have to request them.
Otherwise they just won't give it to you.
For most restaurants I can think of.
But yeah, I don't.
I will usually just use the silverware I have at home.
Yeah, it's
Cuz at the past sometimes if you got like nothing or you're already out and about then you can eat it
But yeah, if I'm eating it at home, I'm just gonna use my own silverware
Especially if it's like something hot. Oh, you're all about like the plastic melting and shit with like micro plastics
It's the last thing I need. Plus, plastic fork, plastic knife,
they never really cut or hold as well anyway,
so it always just seems like a pain in the ass.
And then when I do get them,
for years I would just store them in a drawer,
like one day I'll use this.
And then eventually when I moved,
I just forced myself to use them all
to get rid of them.
And so now I don't.
I don't take them.
In the office here, we have a bunch of forks and knives as is,
so we don't need them here.
Yeah, I know a lot of people who like to use them
because it saves them from new dishes and washing.
But yeah, I have one of those scrub daddy things at my home,
and I just scrub down the
Fork after I'm done and put it away
And you got the scrub daddy. I love scrub daddy. There's also scrub mommy and I think there's scrub, baby
Look, I don't know what's going on with that company. I just know that they're sponges that look like smiley faces, but they hurt
They have different
Personas. I don't know what's going on with them. Yeah I don't know they got the whole scrub family. Yeah there's a whole scrub family.
Yeah what is it? Let's see the official scrub daddy store. Scrub while you scrub.
Wait smile while you scrub. Browse the smile shop. How many scrubs do they got
here? They got a lot of scrubs scrub they got the dish daddy they have a
winter edition that looks like a little
snowflake men back winter the winter
scrubs oh yeah scrub daddy scrub babies
sponges there's the babies scrub mommy decided the names so goofy daddy scrub baby yes rub mommy
winter shapes that's like it are they
all the same
I don't know maybe it's size based dude
I have no answers for you
mmm the barbecue daddy only has a 2.9 out of 5.
That's not good.
I mean, just looking at it, it looks like it would break.
Yeah, everybody's like, it tore up, still needs work.
I wanted to like, but two of the three fell apart.
Yeah, that's not looking too good.
Especially because I remember hearing stories where like, people would try to scrub their grill or whatever down, It's not looking too good especially cuz I've ever ever hear in stories
Where like people would try to scrub their grill or whatever down, and there's like the little metal bristles
Right and then they would like break off and get into food and then people eat the metal bristles and get like
Digestive cuts and shit like I don't know yeah, no I'm all right
No, I'm okay
Yeah, I'm good.
A scrub daddy is just a sponge with a smiley face on it. It's not that exciting.
Yeah, without the smiley face, there's nothing going on.
Yeah, it's just alright.
But, it's, you know, they're always cheap and I see them at the grocery store and they're easy to get.
That's true. That's half the battle.
Yeah. Uh, I feel like if you want to,
if you want to learn how to like clean your grill,
you got to look up a video with like a seven year old cowboy. Like that man,
he taught to clean the grill. Same thing with cast iron skillet.
Don't trust anyone young. They got to be old as hell.
And they have to have a YouTube video that's like, welcome back today're gonna make beans on our skillet and you know that guy knows how to clean
it oh yeah yeah plus he knows how to make good beans absolutely and his beans are gonna be those
trash beans he's gonna be putting stuff in those beans too oh yeah the trash beans are always like just some random like YouTube mom who's like
I've made the best beans known to man it's like no you didn't
haha don't lie to us yeah Denise don't lie to us yeah you need Lawrence the
cowboy
yeah on Lawrence he's like first off you gotta have
jalapeno peppers you're gonna want to char those on the grill that's the first
get that smoky flavor then go want to take your bees now I only get old Hank's
beans you could find old Hank's beans in the bottom shelf of your grocery store.
Old Hank used to be my neighbor. That's how I know.
Then you got to pour in four gallons of sarsaparilla.
You want to boil that down.
If you don't boil it down, it will kill you.
You got to get that brown sugar in there too.
It's like only 12 and a half hours later to even add your first bean.
Yeah, if you're not doing that you may as well not even try.
What are you even doing? Yeah.
Yeah.
So yeah, then.
Oh my god, have you ever seen Kevin on tiktok no you said

Right.
Dude, I love this guy.
I'm pretty sure he's drunk during the filming of all of these.
Oh, 100%.
But there's one where he's like, check this out, dude.

I get a lot of messages you asked me to hang out

Yeah, that's my guy
Good that is
Maybe I gotta watch this guy as well. I'll throw him into the old
You should cuz he's like okay, don't
Yeah, this is good stuff. Yep. I'm that guy
Yes, I was watching that
Oh
My god, I also watch this FBI guy. Have you ever heard of Scott Payne? No, I don't
Let me just stress to you. I am still only in my free time watching old episodes of Hell's Kitchen
And let me tell you season 11. I'm on season 11 right now,
those, that might be the worst group of chefs ever.
Gordon the entire time is like rubbing his temples,
he's so pissed off, he's mad at everyone constantly,
he's like, oh I don't know who to choose
cause you're both terrible, like that kind of stuff.
It's great.
Now he's actually just getting even more
like actually frustrated
Well, this is season 11. This is right in the middle. Yeah, so I wonder what changed because in the end
He's kind of nice and this one. He's losing his voice every episode
So Scott Payne is a retired he's a retired FBI special agent and
He had a video on insider where he talks about
like he like worked undercover like with motorcycle gangs he worked undercover
with like Nazi groups to arrest him like dudes he's done some crazy shit and so he
talks about how he goes undercover and like what it's like to be an undercover
agent that shit's wild like he talks about like he goes undercover and like what it's like to be an undercover agent that shit's wild
Like he talks about like the stuff you have to go through like it's genuinely insane
But it's like really interesting to listen to so like you got one time
Yeah
He has the face of a professional wrestler
He kind of does he looks like he has definitely taken shots to the
face like dudes been punching him in the face for a while he probably is he
talked about going to the motorcycle gangs and he's like obviously I kind of
have to like fit in so I kind of look like I fit in yeah I get it he's like
you got to show up and you got to pretend you're a criminal and then be
like yeah I'm trying to smuggle drugs but he's like they're all kind of like
are you a cop and he's like no I'm not a cop and they
gotta be like alright and he's like you literally have to like build
relationships with these people and like knowing that down the line you're like
I'm gonna get them arrested right so it's like this weird dichotomy you have
like shits wild the same with like like the hate groups and stuff he talks about
like if you listen to some of it, it's like insane.
Like there's some, obviously it's not too surprising.
There's like some insane people out there, dude.
Like it's crazy.
I mean, we're on the internet, so we know.
Yeah.
You can check that out if you want to listen to something crazy.
I'm very curious about the idea of, I would imagine you would have to ingratiate yourself
with one member and then eventually bring up the fact that like, yo, I would imagine you would have to ingratiate yourself with one member,
and then eventually bring up the fact that like,
yo, I wanna be a part of that thing,
then get into the thing,
then become friends with everyone else.
It would take a long time.
I'm very curious what, how does he get money?
You know what I mean?
Like, is he paid by the FBI?
The FBI probably pays him.
So then does he have to set up a fake job for
himself too
Well, I had like a job name
He talked about how you go through like this entire process because they like sleep deprive you they do all these things to make sure
You're not gonna like you know they get you drunk because they want to make sure if you're drinking with these criminals
You're not just gonna have an anger problem and be like, Hey, fuck you. And like, then they get mad at you and then you're dead.
Because, right?
So it's like, they had all these things, or like, what happens when you get caught.
Like, for example, he's telling a story about, he was with this like, drug lord.
One of these drug people.
He's just like some southern man in Virginia with this like, crazy bulldog.
And he's like, taste the cocaine. And he's like,dog and he's like taste the cocaine and he's like I'm not gonna taste the cocaine
So he's like I'm trying to tell the guy like I have heart issues man
Like I'm not doing this shit
And then he's like if I did have to do it like he's worried his life's in danger
You have to do it and then go back to the FBI and be like I had to take it
Like he was telling me he'd have to go to like the hospital
They'd have to test them like they had to do this whole process to be like you're not gonna die or like whatever
of a hospital they'd have to test them like they had to do this whole process to be like you're not gonna die or like whatever and he's like I pretended to
like swipe the cocaine and like taste it and be like oh yeah that's good stuff
and the guy was like you better not be a cop he's like freaking out he's like I
got a double barrel I'll blast your head off boy and like all his crazy shit
like the craziest one I think was the motorcycle gang and they brought him into a basement in this random house
And they were like stripped down and he said he literally had a wire on so he was like freaking out
He's like I hate when people do this and they're like I know but we got crazy shit going on right now
We got to check you and he's like all right
And he said they literally saw the wire, but I guess didn't see it at the same time and so he just like lucked out
He said part of him was like freaked out. He was gonna have to like fight his way out, but he's like
I'm not fighting my way out. There's like 14 motorcycle dudes ready to kill you and then they saw the wire
But then didn't we strip I guess it was like in his clothes
And they're like feeling around in his clothes, so they felt it, but they didn't realize what it was like that type of thing
Interesting so then yeah, so it was it was like sewn into his clothes. I
Guess it was just in his clothes or like they because they were feeling around
But I guess he was talking them
He was kind of like doing the old psychological thing of just being like I hate that you're doing this to me
You know I'm trustworthy like that type of stuff, And they were just like, I know, I know,
but we got a lot of stuff going on right now.
And they were doing all that.
But he said, he was at the point where he literally felt
like he was gonna have to be like, listen,
I'm undercover, like we're gonna bust into this place.
Like, sorry, I led you on, whatever.
So he's like, I was getting ready to like do that
or like fight my way out.
He's like, I thought I was gonna die, but then they were just like alright. Whatever
It is like moved on okay. Yeah, so like he's got some insane stories like the other one he talked about with
like the the hate groups and like all this stuff like there's like he had to like
Because he like obviously knows how to use a gun and things
they're like training him how to use a gun as if he was like some random person that signed up to
you know like become a
Extremist or something so he had to like pretend to like miss shots and be like ah man. I suck at this
so
But like it's I would be I would be freaked out if I had to do any of this
I would like I would be freaked out if I had to do any of this I would like probably shit myself
But the he like loved doing it because his whole thing was like just catching criminals
hmm So that's cool. Yeah, really interesting listen to it
The one I listen to is on the insider
Website so you listen to that
So that was cool. Apparently his apparently his name is, his code name was Pale Horse.
I mean, it's a solid name.
Especially if he's gonna be like a motorcycle guy.
Yeah.
He did say he got really close to one of the motorcycle guys to the point where it just
sucked having to turn him in, but he's like, the guy's still a criminal, sucked having to turn him in but he's like the
guy's still a criminal so I got to turn him in but he's like I knew his like
family I knew his wife and kids and everything and he's like he's out now so
I hope he's doing alright. Oh god. Yeah I know that sucks. I wouldn't do it just for that reason like if they went away just for a
little bit I'd be convinced they were coming for me. Oh a hundred hundred percent. Yeah, I would, that's what I thought too.
Like if they get out, they're like, kill them.
Like find them and kill them.
Yeah, I would never, I would like, I couldn't do that just for that reason.
Like if it was one of those, they go away forever, then I, then all right, you got me
on 50-50, I might, but they can get out?
No, no, I'd be, I'd be looking over my shoulder every day.
Yeah, no, I would I would definitely be paranoid
But it's fun hearing about those people and they're saving people that's neat
Yeah, there's some crazy shit out there
Let's see. What else did I see I saw people going to Coachella?
It's like a complete opposite. What do you mean you saw people going to Coachella it's like the complete opposite what do you mean you saw people going to Coachella oh no like on social media all the people like
Coachella but I don't really get Coachella like is it just a big music
festival and that's it like they always got the Paris Weevil Weevil wheel and
then people like camping out there at one point in time, it felt, I think, a little more, I don't know, like hipsterish
out in the desert.
Like, people were going out there, they were doing weird drugs and, like, trying to have
a good time and listen to music.
Somewhere along the lines, it very clearly became some kind of like Instagram model,
Tik Tok installation kind of,
everyone I know who used to go absolutely hates it now.
Yeah.
And I think that's just because people posted,
hey, I'm going to Coachella.
And same thing with, I imagine Burning Man
and all those other ones.
Oh yeah.
Cause I used to think it was like crazy hipster thing,
but then it's like, here's just Katy Perry in Coachella.
It's got like normal people.
I'm like, oh, I guess this is just like normal music people.
Like I never really knew what it was.
Yeah, again, I think at one point in time,
it really was kind of like a music festival.
Now it's an event a lot of people go to
to show off that they have the money to go to it,
if that makes any sense. Right.
Because I bet if you looked up Coachella prices.
Let's see. So festival admission,
general admission, weekend one is six hundred forty nine dollars
599 for weekend two
Plus shuttle is 799 VIP you're looking at 13 no 1400 bucks
Yeah, you can buy sweets, but then you also have to car camp. So that's another 160 or
Sunset van camp high roof camper van,
one queen. That's 2,900 bucks. Sunset van camp. That's 4,900.
A bigger camper. Like, I don't know if this is
a thing that you can buy there. It's basically,
you're spending several thousand to make this happen no matter what.
What the hell? Lake El Dorado general admission for $4,400?
Yeah this one is $10,000. What the heck? Yeah shuttle passes are 150 bucks, lockers, VIP charging lockers.
Yeah like it's uh it's it's it genuinely seems like they're charging a lot of money for
It genuinely seems like they're charging a lot of money for a weekend festival. And that's fine.
If that's what you want to do and afford.
But like, it's definitely out of the price range of a lot of people.
Plus, I just don't get it.
Like you're just, I guess you're camping out there.
It's kind of like you're camping with a bunch of people, but there's music.
I guess you're doing drugs. Yeah, I mean, it's kind of like you're camping with a bunch of people, but there's music. I guess you're doing drugs
Yeah, I mean it's like a festival and so you go out there to you know hang out
Do different stupid activities you know?
eat
drink
Go to you know weird exhibits and things they have out there
There's a lot of you know things you can do it looks like they have out there. Um, there's a lot of, you know, things you can do. It looks like they have little areas you can attend.
Like there's the Red Bull Mirage area or a, uh,
silent disco or the white claw shore club
or the hide shoe getaway. There's the Pinterest remix area. Again,
going through these, these, I imagine 10 years ago, this would not have been the case. There's, uh,
the Alaska airline experience, the visit,
the MX experience or go to the 10 packs
experience. There's celebrating real magic. Yeah.
Coca-Cola has a pop-up shop. There's a supercharger hub.
There's the ball deck launch. Don't know what the hell that is
There's the escape with the method system of method body wash
Neutrogena sunscreen dispensers that kind of stuff like I'm sure
You know what I imagine it is
The difference between what twitchcon was 10 years ago versus what it is now
Yeah where twitchcon is a bunch of things that exist to amplify streamers so it's like new keyboards and makeup and microphones and it has nothing to
with gaming anymore at all
yeah which I guess is a lot of twitch at this point where none of its gaming
everyone's watching like nothing a high-school student. Yeah, and the most popular stuff has nothing to do with games.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Now it's just like people driving their car and getting traffic violations.
Yeah, and I would imagine that, you know, at one point in time it was definitely about
the music, and now the music exists and it's fun to go see, but it isn't the point anymore.
I don't think, I think being there is the point
It's almost like a status symbol, I guess yeah to say I want to go cello
Yeah which I
Don't get but I'm also not the person that would be like I'm a status symbol
Well, there's probably plenty of people would have rather have that in their group of people that would be like, I'm a status symbol. I feel like if I brought up being like, oh,
I went to Coachella, I'm kind of cool to my friend group, they'd be like, what? Right?
But they all play Warhammer.
Sure. I must stress, I don't, you know how, you know how it's like, man, I clearly am missing out on some music things, right?
There's some, I just, it just, Elbow was there, so that's cute.
Kneecaps there, that's cute.
There's a bunch of things that I'm like, oh, okay, I know this person, I know that group,
I know this.
Going through this list, dude, I just came across someone named horse girl, and I thought horse horse girl was a
Like I don't even know what I thought but what it is. I'm just gonna send you this
It's just straight-up a lady dressed like a horse
Really is I don't know what I thought this was gonna be I was like oh yeah horse girl. That's a thing but like
You know what I guess this was gonna be. I was like, oh yeah, horse girl, that's a thing. But like, you know what?
I guess you gotta get noticed somehow.
You know, I think too many people try to get noticed nowadays.
It's like everyone yelling chicken jockey.
Right? Like a good portion of that is just from
people trying to get viral on the internet.
I don't like it.
But then again, that also makes me like the Simpsons
So I tied an onion to my belt which was my style at the time
I used to be with it and they changed what it was
Although great that I never really used to be with it, so yeah, just looking at these
So yeah, just looking at these
Like obviously I recognize green day and I recognize like only I only know Charlie XCX because of the internet
Who are the Viagra boys?
I would create
It's like the the Vanga boys or whatever remember them. Yeah
Yeah, maybe they was there Boys somebody named snow stripper. Yeah, maybe they was there Niagara boys somebody named Shavuza
Yeah, dude Shavuza is a thing now people message me like you know about Shavuza. I'm like I do I do
Yes, it's a lot of a lot of
DJs
It looks a lot of DJs. Yeah, that's cool. I mean if you're gonna do party stuff like that that makes a lot of sense
Yeah
Some of the DJs are just like hipster DJs though like disco Dom by Domber sky sounds yo no that name's great
I don't even care. I love disco Dom by Domber sky
Yeah, Canyon Cody
Yeah, Canyon Cody
See Boris bread break. Yeah, break. Yeah, that's me. What is brick? Yeah, what is brick? Yeah
Yeah, I mean the thing is is obviously it's also generational and then I don't think you or I would you know, I think
Sad to say to any 30 plus year olds who go to Coachella, uh,
you're the one spending the most money because I guarantee you don't want to be down in the
muck with all the like 18, 19, 20 year olds who are like trying to get free beer and shit.
You want to go to those plans that are like the camping plans and I get to go to my tent,
the ones where it's $10,000 and oh yeah that's not a percent because yeah and then they don't have all the
aches and pains you've started to experience yeah right also be like I need
my sleep there is no way in hell I'm gonna share any bathroom with any of
these people oh yeah no I just I would rather cut my balls off
No, it's that is that I would not I don't like doing it at concerts and stuff anyway
Yeah, those are the you know for ladies might be different I don't know but for men any type of concert or sporting event or anything where there's drinking involved,
those bathrooms are the messiest, like an ungodly mess.
At a certain point, some guys just stop caring if they hit the bowl and they're like, I'm
peeing everywhere.
You're like, cool.
Thanks, bro.
I hate that.
No, no, no, thank you.
Especially if they're doing porta potties.
That's the worst.
Oh yeah, that's
There's no way in hell you get me to do that. I'd be so mad. I'm like no. I'm all right
There's also be but do be kind of a name is this be but do we I?
Don't know
Be but do be I
Feel like there's gonna some, there's some people
younger listening to me and like, you don't know? I did, I always thought like I could
probably keep up with what's going on with the the younger crowd because I'm
like not that old and now it's it's really hitting where I'm like dude.
I actually had the epiphany of why that is the other day. That when you're a kid, you only have free time
to look at this kind of stuff.
That's true, yeah.
And the older you get, the more responsibilities you have
or you can't constantly be paying attention
to what's hip and cool and new.
But the people who do who are older,
that's because their job is like, I'm music director
or my whole job is finding new talent.
And so they know what's like the next thing. for most people like dude I got work this is just
like me I haven't watched a single new TV show or seen a movie since the
beginning of the year I've only watched old episodes of Hell's Kitchen in my
free time and that is like an hour at night when I'm cooking dinner right
other than that I'm not watching anything
it's like oh you see this you do this like no I got work to do I got things
going on it's like a lot of people can't keep up with video games but we do just
because it's what we do for a living absolutely yeah exactly but there's
plenty of people that are just like I don't know the latest games like I don't
know but that's part of the reason they watch us like I hope so and not for my
failure yeah there's probably some people watching for failure but that's
always gonna be the case mm-hmm do it you see there you preorder your switch to
this week I did see that I'm still not going to do it but I did see that you could I'm going to do it
but I'm also well I love switch to well
I love Nintendo games so I already know
I'm going to play like I'm going to play
Mario Kart I'm going to play the new
Minecraft Donkey Kong and I'm probably
going to play numerous things that come
out for the switch to so I already know
I'm going to use a lot so that's why I'm
like I may as well just get it now and I can play it right
away so plus the scalpers are played by it all up charge even more so I'm as
well get it before the scalpers do sure I mean yeah I don't right now there's no
game for it I want the only game that I am even remotely excited for comes out
November December something like that so maybe then I'll consider it but right Right now there's no game for it. I want the only game that I am even remotely excited for comes out
November December something like that. So maybe then I'll consider it, but right now there's no need for a switch to I'm like I got my old switch. It's sitting there. I literally haven't turned that thing on since
God Octopath 2 came out which would have been I don't even know last year sometime
Yeah, no, I love Nintendo games. So I know I'm gonna do it. Plus I might even
replay the Breath of the Wild with HD stuff. I'm very much a Nintendo person, because like
Nintendo does their own thing. They have their own games. Plus oh, Kirby's Air Ride. I'm
gonna play Kirby's Air Ride. Definitely playing that. And so like Xbox, PlayStation, like
I wouldn't care as much with those because you can usually just play those games on PC anyway
So I'm just like whatever but Nintendo. It's just like you got to have our console, so I'm like well I
Got to have your console. That's right
Which by the way Nintendo I
I forgot to mention I beat the
kaizo iron man
It happened. I don't believe you well there's proof in
my vods so what it so you finally did it
huh I finally did it it happened they
even made me a live stream fail post I
ended up being on the live stream fail congratulations
yep and no I know bad comments either
people were just like dude Crenbor I
haven't seen that guy like 13 years
that's mostly everything we do these
days I still live like hi yeah yeah
some people are like wow he showed so
much enthusiasm sounds like it's like fist pump in the air
There are some people are like dude. I used to watch co-optional back in the day, and then they're like geekenders is here
That's a thing I
Recommend watching the crendor episodes. I guess good
Thank you. Yeah And other people just being like oh yeah crendor and and I was like yeah that's good thank you yeah and other people just
being like oh yeah crendor and that was pretty much it yeah finally beat it and then I started
super kaizo again so it never ends but now I can at least say that I have beaten it once
that is true so that's nice now I'm an official
champion so now nobody can question it
which by the way I will but take that
guy that like two years ago is like this
is why you'll never win guys all iron
mind in my chat absolute checkmate all
right um so yeah feels good
it was a for alligator by the way I the
one with the butt yeah the one with the
ass I don't know anything about that
Pokemon but I do know having watched a
little bit of you playing that that guy
has got an ass and it's hilarious how
pronounced it is yeah it's dead man
squats yeah it is. Yeah, it's Ed May and Squats.
Yeah, it is very funny because like all the other
Pokemon are little tiny cutie pies and then this thing's
like a giant alligator but with an ass.
Yeah, that's a, it's kind of a, kind of weird.
It does seem like one of the animators fetishes.
I just, it's weird.
But I'm glad that's what you beat it with. I wish it was with something a little more silly, but you know, that's fine.
Man, looking at...
Even as looking at some of the old clips and highlights and stuff, it's like some are from eight or nine years ago.
Of what?
Like even, cause I was like, oh have I ever been on here before?
Cause like obviously they put your
the, my
kaizo thing up there and there was just like, Krendor's
best round of PUBG yet, when I like goofed
something, that was eight years ago.
And then just like something else
was like nine years ago, I think it was when I
brig myself. Oh yeah, when I brig myself.
The uh, only time I I've that I can remember, I haven't ever looked at it, but the one time I was alerted
to the fact that I was on livestream fails was during the Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker launch.
And day one after logging in and it took like two hours to get on the servers. I log in and as a goof to show chat
what my character looks like when he goes to bed,
I went to go rest,
forgot that resting in a bed logs you out.
And I was put back in the two hour queue.
It is truly a live stream fail.
I was like, no.
So that's the last time.
And that would have been three years ago maybe?
Oh, yeah
So a while. Yeah, that's I definitely don't make the rounds there
I try not to do a lot of failing, but it happens
it's uh
Man, it's just once you're on the internet for as long as we've been it's
just it's even like just crazy to think about because like I remember hearing
people they'd be like I've worked in my industry for 20 years and I'm like damn
they've been working there for a while then like I can't believe that and then
I think like I've been doing this 16 years I'm like dude I'm just like a few
years away from doing this 20 years it's a weird kind of you either do it long enough that you become irrelevant
and you just kind of keep doing it or you blow up so quickly that you burn out
in the most spectacular way possible oh yeah like the amount of live stream
fails I'm like oh yeah that guy just started streaming last year and it's
like here's his racist rant I I'm like, Oh boy.
Yeah.
There's also a lot of people who, you know, like, uh, are constantly online,
like the people who take their cameras with them everywhere.
And I don't understand why you would do that.
I guess it's an addiction to streaming or maybe they justify it in that if they turn the
camera on they're making money while they're doing stuff but it's like don't
you ever just want to do stuff and not be working? That would be something you
would think about yes I think a lot of them because they're still younger maybe
but like I think as you get older that really does become a focal point.
It baffles me.
There was a clip that was going around of that extra emerald girl who was driving in
a car and drove through a red light while looking at her Twitch chat in the car while
on.
First off, it should be illegal to stream while you're in a car.
It used to be, but then they just stopped. And it's crazy because she's on the thing, she's like, oh yeah, I do that with
red lights all the time. I was like, what? And then I think she got banned for
exactly one day, so why even ban her? A vacation. Yeah, like why do that? And then she's back at it.
And I was like, look, I'm not gonna tell people what to do. But legally, responsibly, there's no way you should be able to do that.
Well, remember, that was the, it was the numerous driving thing. There was one clip,
some like in Sweden, some like streamers were just like, what if we pretend to run this guy off the road?
And they're like, ho ho ho. And then then that like they got in trouble for that obviously and then there was like another one where that
one rich douchey youtuber crashed his car and then he's like bro what the fuck
he's like bleeding out it's like then he immediately bought a new car and he like
went back to it here's the problem she's too rich there's a thing where it's like
rich kids start streaming
They're already rich and so the rules don't apply to them
And then they have streamer ego, and then they do even more dumb rich kid stuff not a fan not a fan of that
Mm-hmm. I'm gonna say even a lot of these orgs that start like there's been so many
networks and organizations to start and they all fall apart because
It's just like either people want to do their own things the same way you like bands like look at the
band sure in the Beatles like yeah all these bands and then people always be
like these streamers doing all their stuff and it's like well you're just
watching those streamers you're not watching like the just normal everyday
streamers like us that are just doing our thing going along
Not breaking the law
Yeah, I mean
We'd honestly I think and I don't I don't think we should take too much credit for this
I don't think we have the money or the power to break the law like some of these kids
That's true. God. I wish I did
As much as I want to sit here and be like we are
So cool because we don't do any of that stuff, I think we're forced to.
Because the difference between just going to Offline TV, for example,
they have a six months ago, Inside Offline TV's LA Mega Mansion.
Neither of us have an LA Mega Mansion.
So we don't have the opportunity to throw like an LA Mega Mansion party, for example.
Like we just can't, these are things we can't do because we lack the resources
So we can say yeah, we're better than them because we you know, but we have no temptation. We can't afford temptation
That's a good quote
We can't afford temptation. We can't I was like I got bills to pay man
I can't what do we do spend this on drugs and women
Are they gonna pay my bills? No?
Closest we got is like Dodgers farm
I was watching Sam play that soccer game the other day. I started playing. He's like the geese are fighting
I gotta go break it up
Dodgers like I put a chicken in my room because everyone was taking the chickens
And I'm like now this is now that's some shenanigans. We could get up to that. We just won't
Yeah, I'm just
I'm good, dude
Too many issues already, yeah, I can't they can't afford any issues. I got I got stuff to do man
Speaking of which you know we should check out to help us out

Neelululululu.
And weather request.
Maple Ridge, British Columbia.
A nice little town with two pubs built on farms.
Which is a strange theme to run with. Dear Cox, dear Crendor, I'm a longtime fan I heard you talk about
wanting to do the weather near me for a few podcasts ago I used to watch your
animations with my first love every night in high school still love podcasts
now would mean a lot to hear the weather in my hometown thank you for good
memories guys. Done! Look at us do it right now! look at that we've done it let's see whether

Everything about Maple Ridge looks so... it's like a... I don't know how to describe it.
It looks quintessentially Canadian. Yeah.
I don't know how best it is.
It just, if you had to imagine Canada, this is what it would be.
It does kind of look like that.
Yeah.
And it has, it has sort of a Midwestern vibe too.
Cause a lot of the restaurants are chain things like red Robin and that kind of
stuff, but then they also have the well public house.
It looks all right. But
I'm more interested in Bobby socks fifties diner. Plus they're like surrounded by mountains
and stuff. Yeah. There's there's a Jimmy's lunchbox. There's some there's some great
names in here. There's a lot of bakeries and coffee shops that look very good. But then
there's also the jolly coachman. It's like a pub and it looks like it should be in England kind of,
but outside on the door it says liquor store.
So maybe it's a liquor store and pub?
Two for one. You can drink there and then take some.
Yeah, I guess so.
The Black Sheep Public House and Liquor Store. You can drink there and then take some off. Yeah, I guess so.
The Black Sheep Public House and Liquor Store. A lot of public houses and liquor stores.
Is that a Canadian thing?
Are we learning that in order to...
Wow, yeah, a lot of these public houses
are also selling liquor.
Huh, that must be a Canadian thing.
I genuinely don't know. And a Tim Hortons
and an A&W Canada. You gotta have that. You know what? I haven't had an A&W draft root
beer in like 20 years and I miss it. Those are so good. I don't think I've had an A&W
anything root beer in like 20 years. Yeah, like you would go there and they would pour it
from like the, like you were getting a beer,
but it was root beer. Oh my God, and it was in a frozen mug.
I don't know if they still do that, but that was great.
Those were the days.
Yeah, that was good stuff.
I don't even know if they exist anymore.
I mean, they definitely do in Canada.
Well, that's true.
I guess they used to have one around here and
they closed same same but that was when I lived in Ohio so I haven't seen any
in LA dude there's so many good bakeries and stuff here all right I gotta stop
looking at this we got something like getting really hungry that's the weather

Okay.
What does our Facts of the Day?
Fact of the Day, day, day.
Did you know that the heart of a shrimp is located in its head?
I did not know that.
What?
I mean, I guess that makes sense because most people are eating
the body and I've never seen a heart inside the body of a shrimp.
Yeah, it's a-
I mean, it checks out. I've had plenty of shrimp in my day and I've never seen a heart inside the body of a shrimp. Yeah, it says. I mean, it checks out.
I've had plenty of shrimp in my day and I assume, yeah, I assume everything's in the
top part.
Yeah, it says they also have an open circulatory system, which means they have no arteries
and their organs float directly in blood.
That's pretty wild.
That's weird.
Yeah.
No, I gotta look this up.
Yeah, look at that. Yeah, look at that.
Yeah, look at that.
In the shrimp, the whole back end is absolutely just meat to be eaten except for the intestine,
which is in the back, which is like, hey, chef, clean the poop out of your damn shrimp.
Yeah, it's really got that line.
Yeah.
Right?
That straight up poo line.
But yeah, everything in the front is there.
Stomach, brain, digestive gland, heart, gonad.
One single gonad and gills.
Everything's up in the front.
Mouth.
Yeah, all of it.
Wow.
Yeah, look at that.
Front loaded, literally. Damn. I mean, I look at that. Front-loaded, literally.
Damn. I mean, I guess that's the idea
if, like, you can, maybe they can escape?
Does their ass grow back?
I don't know if their ass grows back.
Well, you know...
It's not like lizards or something.
Yeah. Huh.
It'd be kinda cool if it did.
Uh, there you go. Look at that. That's your fact of the day. Huh, it'd be kind of cool if it did
There you go, that's your fact of the day
All right, who has come to us with tears in their eyes tell me someone
We do have tears in their eyes people here it is
sirs dear
Illustrious sirs with tears in my eyes. I beg thee for thine wisdom. Earlier this month I finally hit the big 3-0. I turned 30. I'm currently single. I've had a few long-term relationships in the past. I just started what I hope is to be my long-term career last year, but still have a lot of conflicting thoughts and feelings about beginning the new stage of my life. When you both entered your 30s, what was it like for you? What did you look forward to? What did you dread? Were there any unexpected surprises, events, or changes that ended up being really cool? Please give me guidance for this next decade.
Let me think back. Let me see if I can think back on this.
When I turned 30...
Yeah, cause you were 30 when you started doing YouTube, right?
Yeah! I was 29 when I started.
So I guess I was in the same boat that
was starting something new, and I didn't really
know what was going on.
I had lost my job as a teacher.
I was broke as hell.
I had no money.
I had to move back home with my parents at 29,
which is as embarrassing as embarrassing can
get for any child. And then I spent the next
year... Yeah, yeah, I completely forgot. I had my 30th birthday at home at my
parents because I literally... Where was I gonna go? I don't think I celebrated
at all. Maybe that was the start of me not caring about my birthday.
Here's what I'll say.
You don't know where life's going to take you.
You don't know what's going to happen to you.
All you can do is pick a direction and go.
And whatever happens, happens.
Whether you love your job, whether you meet the next person in your life, the only thing
you can focus on is making every day that you have the best day can be and taking the time to enjoy it and to live in the moment
because you have no idea what's gonna happen. Like I said I was a teacher
before all this and then I was literally had to leave my apartment I was super in
debt I was complete mess I had to move back home uh relearn to live with my
parents after not having lived with them since I was 18.
So yeah, it was, it was a, uh, it was a complete mess, but now I'm here and I'm running my
business and I'm making games and I'm doing weird podcasts with Crendor.
You'll never know.
You will find a person and they may be your, the person for you the rest of your life and
they may not.
There's no timeline for any of that.
Just live every day the best you can.
Be a good person.
That's it.
It's really that easy.
Yeah.
I mean, mine, my 30s started better than my late 20s.
My late 20s, I was falling apart.
So it was just like my 30s ended up being better. It was like late 20s
gallbladder out right the old uh everything was crashing. I was like I gotta do something dude
I'm turning 30. So then I just started working out and uh I guess another thing you could do is just
start working out. That doesn't mean like go on a treadmill for two hours. It doesn't mean like lift 800 pounds. It could just be like body weight exercises just to strengthen your core or like
your stability or like just making sure the muscles you use every day are like stronger so
they can support whatever lifestyle you're living. Like if you're running you want to strengthen
your knees and your you know the muscles around your knees and everything. If you're running, you want to strengthen your knees and your, you know, the muscles around your knees and everything.
If you're just sitting, you want to strengthen your hip flexors,
you want to work on your lower back so you don't hit your 40s
and be like, oh, my lower back, right?
Or your neck or your posture and everything.
You want to start doing that now before it's too late.
And once it's too late, you're like, man, if only I started doing this when I was 30.
Right. So it's better late than never. True.
But it's usually better to start earlier than to wait until the pain starts
and then be like, man, I wish I would have did this earlier. So start exercising.
That's my other tip. That's usually my tip for everybody.
And admittedly, you hit that exercise, I promise you, the better you look, the
better you'll feel, and the better you feel, the more you'll outwardly show that
you're feeling good and you have confidence, and then people will start to take notice.
I mean, like, that's a tale as old as time. That's basically a trope at this point. So
it feels foolish saying it. But like, that's true, right? The more confidence you have,
the more people will be like, wow, I definitely want to see his wiener so like you know it is what it is it's a it's also a weird thing we're like you
start realizing the ages are different depending on how old you are because
when you're in your like late teens early 20s you're like oh man that person's 40
they're super old but then you get to be in your 30s and you're like
Actually 40s not that old
Right like he started
Being like actually maybe I was wrong, but it's all just kind of you know
Perspective based on where you are. I don't know if time just goes faster, which I think it definitely feels like it. That's for sure
Yeah, when you're a kid, it's like I think that we talked about that a while ago but
there's a there's a thing where when you're a kid it almost feels like
everything's so long you know it's the same time because you're growing at a
rapid rate but even then when you go to school it's like every grade feels like
they're vastly like far out from the other one like third and fourth grade
that's such a different grade that's such a
different like that's such a leap in
terms of like oh man the fifth grade shows
you probably how fast or how different
the different parts of your life like
when you're a kid the difference between
seven and ten is huge and then between
ten and thirteen is huge and so that's
probably because like at a certain point
once you get 18 19 20 mid 20, mid-20s,
you don't really change that much,
you just sort of fall apart.
But you're still the you you are.
Like there's nothing, I'm not growing taller,
I'm not, you know, nothing crazy's happening to me.
If anything, you start falling apart
and the next big change is like,
ah, there's hair where there wasn't before
and now there's hair, less hair where there was before. That's it. That's the only difference.
Yeah, like is that a wrinkle? Well how'd that get there?
Instead of growing you just, it flips the switch you go in reverse. Yeah, and then eventually you start to shrink.
Yeah, you become so old you shrink a little.
Yeah, so it's, plus like even your brain's growing rapidly at that point. Like every year it's just like, oh, there's, that's when the ants and the uncles and everybody's like, I remember you were so little, it's only been a few years, you're so big now.
And then you get older and they're just like, oh, now you're just old. It's like, okay. yeah say it's it definitely slows down in terms of the aging but the odd part
is that the years go by quicker because I say that but at the same time it's
not like they go by super fast but they're still everything feels like goes
by faster as you'll look back and be like dude I can't believe those 10 years
ago but at the same time I'll look back and be like I dude, I can't believe it was 10 years ago. But at the same time, I'll look back and be like, I kind of can believe it was 10 years ago. You know what I mean? I mean, yeah.
Yeah. It's, it's the strange kind of like combo thing. You know what I mean?
Where it's abs, it's absolutely the idea that you're getting older and things seem to speed up,
but also life is faster because you have to do more. Like again going back to what you were saying
earlier I think the idea of when you're a kid you just have a lot of free time so
everything seems like it's like when I used to work at McDonald's when there
were no customers it was the longest worst job I ever had but when there were
customers my shift felt like it went by so quickly. Yeah yeah that's a good way
to put it because you're you're occupied your brains like
focused on doing stuff and the time goes
by well there's nothing happening you're
just looking at the clock like here comes
30 seconds yeah it comes 40 seconds so
yeah I think we answered it good good
good let's see here we go
let me do another one
Dear illustrious sirs, with tears in my eyes and on my knees
I seek your knowledge
you two have had many
news stories over the years with inconclusive
ends that leave more questions than answers
if you could both go back to any news story
and get a proper ending or conclusive answer
which would you pick?
God, there's so many.
Obviously, any of them involving Florida plus monkey plus,
like, incident.
That's very, yeah, very true.
There's so many that are just, even the one we did last time.
No answers.
Just no answers.
It drives me crazy that we, it honestly
feels like the crazier the story, the less answers we
have and it should be the reverse because I have to imagine you would ask why did this
guy break in to the supermarket, steal every bottle of ketchup, spray it in the parking
lot all over his body and then fight an alligator? Why? Like there's got to be a reason behind
it. Why does no one ask this? He didn't just do it.
Even if it's just like he's on drugs, then we'd be like, okay, he's on drugs. Yeah. But
we don't know.
Then we don't get that. We never get that. It's just like he did this crazy stuff and
was arrested. It's like, okay, but why did he do the crazy stuff? There must be a reason.
Like, did that alligator say something to him because he was on drugs and he thought the alligator said something to him? Like,
ask the man.
Is there, oh yeah, the guy with the turtle in his pants. We were like, why's he got
the turtle in his pants?
Yeah, the guy last week. He had a turtle in his pants. He was trying to get through security.
No explanation. Like, was it his pet turtle? Was he trying to get the turtle somewhere?
Was someone going to buy that turtle? Did the turtle just say, put me in your pants?
Like, did he think the turtles can protect his crotch
from the X-ray?
Or like, what was he thinking?
How long was he gonna keep that turtle in there?
The entire flight?
How long was that flight?
That's all, they just don't, they aren't very good at this.
And frankly, I'm not a fan of it.
Honestly, I would love to know if Hank the tank is still roaming the wilderness. I
Think if we knew
Hank the tank is still out there roaming around
That would feel good that yeah, that is the one story that really truly needs a happy ending
Yeah, cuz we don't know there could be fake Hank Hank the Tank, like we talked about. Could be the descendants of Hank.
Hank could be somewhere we don't know. Just, I would like to know, like, for a for sure situation of like, yeah, Hank's still out there and he's still being a bear.
I'd be like, hell yeah, dude. Go Hank.
I would love to know the future of Hank the Tank
see I'd pick that all right and that's our dear illustrious sirs okay what is
our fact no we did that already you want another shrimp fact no I don't want
another shrimp fact all right what is our't want another shrimp fact. Alright.
What is our big news story of the day?
We've got Michigan towns people move 9,100 books to new home one by one.
I saw this. I think it made the rounds on social media.
Very cute.
Yeah. Chelsea, Michigan. Residents of all ages in a small Michigan community formed a human chain
and helped a local bookshop move each of its 9100 books one by one to a new storefront about a block away.
The Book Brigade of around 300 people stood in two lines running along a sidewalk in downtown Chelsea on Sunday, passing each title from Serendipity Books former
location directly to the correct shelves in the new building down the block and
around the corner on the Main Street. Quote, it was a practical way to move the
books but it was also a way for everybody to have a part. Michelle
Tuplin, Tuplin, the store owners said said as people passed the books along they said I've not read this
That's a good one
Her way, what they said oh, and that's a good house like man. I haven't read this. That's a good one
Momentum had been building since tupplin announced the move in January it became so buzzy in town, so many people wanted to help.
This feels like a Hallmark movie type of situation.
It does, and that was what I think was sweet about it.
There were people online who were like,
ew, wouldn't it be more efficient if you put it in a cart?
And I was like, that's not the point.
This is a town that came together,
and they were doing this
because they're being helpful neighbors,
and it's very like sweet yeah
yeah sure there's more efficient ways more corporatized ways to move these
books but everybody's like let's move it together yeah they just handed it off
one person it's like moving a bucket of water and they did it very efficiently
and honestly it's cute and sweet and I love that they did it yeah but you never know somebody might have
those like grimy fingers they got all
their dirt and grime all over the books
yeah I feel like that's the last like
the least of your concerns when it comes to a
book to be honest yeah that's true
wonder if anybody dropped one there's
like hand them off like oh just like
fell in a sewer I hope not but you have to imagine
at least one book dropped it you have to
imagine yeah I'm 9100 there there's one
one drop there's got to be one book that
dropped for sure yeah topless said the
endeavor took just under two hours much
shorter than hiring a mover company to
box and unbox thousands of titles the
brigade even put the books back on the
shelves and Apple alphabetical order
look at that now topless hopes to have
the new location open within two weeks
wait two weeks they smooth all the books
in really do probably whatever it is
that you do when you do that yeah I
don't know I've never owned a bookstore
that's true the bookstore has been in Chelsea about 60 miles west of Detroit
since 1997
Dublin has been the owner since 2017 and has three part-time employees
about 5,300 people called Chelsea home and residents described it as a place
where neighbors help neighbors
it's a small town and people just really look out for each other said
Casey Friss up in Chelsea.
I imagine Casey thoughts like, it's a small town.
Anywhere you go, you're going to run into someone you know or who knows you and is going to ask you about your day.
And I teach them how to make my baked beans like cast iron skillet.
The whole thing just cute.
Yeah, that's great
So yeah, that's a that's a happy news story of the day. I
