How's your week
Good good I am stupid. Uh, how's your week? Good, good.
I um, spent all of it kind of catching up from a week of uh, just, oh god.
Oh yeah, gaming.
All weekend, all last weekend I did play days.
So I was running around, I was playing games, it was very fun.
It's one of the best parts of the job to be honest.
And then I got back and I was like, all right, well I got a bunch of stuff to do.
And then immediately jumped into work.
And I forgot how much stuff I had to do.
And then, cause I was gonna put it all off
till after Playdays.
And then companies hit me up and they were like,
hey, it's Next Fest.
Do you wanna play our demo?
And I was like, will you pay me?
And they're like, yup.
And I'm like, okay.
So now I'm doing that plus the other work I have.
What a mess, what a mess. And then I got people who're like, yup, and I'm like, okay, so now I'm doing that plus the other work. I have What a mess what a mess and then I got people who are like just you didn't finish expedition 33 yet. I'm like
I'm only one man
Man, it isn't man like I can't I can't do everything so yeah, it's uh, you know
Welcome to the world of entertainment.
The ruthless coal mines of entertainment.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The only, like, it isn't that it's,
I don't want to do the things I want. Like I would love to play the games you want
and be on stream all the time, but there's literally only 24 hours in a day.
Right. I can only do so much with the time I have. So yeah, I've tried to kick it into 11th gear. 11th gear? Yep, that's right. The old 11th
gear. The old 11th gear. I tried to kick it into 11th gear and I am so burnt out. I woke
up, this is an example, in Final Fantasy X, there was a Lollapaloo day, an international Lollapaloo
day. And I was like, I gotta see what this is. I gotta know.
So I found out that it happens at 6 AM Pacific time.
All right. So I woke my ass up for a goof to be on
stream at 6 AM to go to world Loll Lala Fel Day to see what was going on.
It was hilarious. It was very funny. But why'd I do that, dude? What was the point?
In my mind I was like, well, surely I will have a great time and do all this
stuff and at least... Dumb. What a stupid thing for me to do. What a giant waste of money.
Yeah, just silly.
Actually, when do you get up for geek enders?
Uh, 6.30? That's like around then for geek? Enders? Uh, 630.
That's like around that.
But that's like a once a week thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, this was, well, this was a mistake on my part.
So the previous night before this is, I got, I got tricked our deer.
So I've said to you numerous times, I don't want to switch to, I don't need it.
I'll get it in the winter when the first game I actually care about comes out all right
Well fate conspired against me and Alex Fosiani friend of the pod of course straight-up was like yo
I got to switch to for you. I'm like what he's like. Yeah, I was there and they had a bunch
I was like huh, so now I have a switch to I
Like how Alex is though like if I had to pick somebody I would have picked Alex just like dude
I was like out in the wild and there's just gonna found another switch to like oh shit
Just pick that off the switch tree. Yeah, I messaged me. It was like you want this. I was like yeah
Almost at the same connotation of it fell off the back of the truck. You know what I mean?
It's like don't worry about it. Don't worry like uh
in the trash
It brings me the switch too.
And he's like, all right, in order to, you know,
manage the account and switch everything over,
you have to like get your switch out and do the whole thing where you transfer
stuff.
So rather than be an adult and go to bed at a reasonable time last night,
I instead was up till midnight. Now again, I had to be up at 5 a.m.
That is minimum five hours of sleep, which is not conducive to my life.
But then I proceeded to wake up because I had a lot to drink, not like booze, but
water and stuff, because I was sitting up and I was trying to focus on like dealing
with the switch. And I just kept waking up to pee.
It was a rough night.
It was a rough night.
I think I got maybe total somewhere
around four hours of sleep.
I don't know.
But yeah, so I woke up and I did my thing.
So I am exhausted, to say the least.
But with that said, I did play around with that switch.
And that was pretty interesting.
I downloaded that weird $10
Learned to use a demo. Whatever. I was like I have to see what this is. Like it can't be anything good, dude
It's kind of awesome
Well makes it good
So one of the things it does is it will ask you to test out stuff
So for example the microphone it'll be like hey ask you to test out stuff. So for example, the microphone, it'll be like, Hey, turn on a vacuum cleaner,
make a lot of noise.
And then we'll just pick up your voice rather than the background noise, which
I was like, interesting.
But one of the things it does is it's like mute your TV and then it will test
the rumble feature of the, of the joy con and it will make the Joy-Con make music.
Like the rumble will speed up so quickly,
it'll do like, it'll make it make noises.
Oh.
I was like, what the hell?
It's super interesting.
You know, a lot of it is things like
learning to use the mouse, learning to,
but every once in a while it'll surprise you
with something truly unique.
And you'll be like, huh, that's really cool.
I don't know why it needs to do that,
but that's really cool.
There's a lot of that.
It's definitely something that I was like,
man, I should have saved this for stream.
But at the same time, I'm not gonna end up playing anything
on that damn thing for a long time.
So, I don't know, maybe I'll get Mario Kart,
but I don't want to get, you know what I mean? I don't know maybe I'll maybe I'll get Mario Kart but I
don't want to get you know what I mean I don't need it I'll play it exactly one
time so yeah I love Mario Kart I've been playing that almost every day
especially with viewers it's fun then I yell at all of them it's always it's
always a good time I am curious by the. I heard tell that if you have a switch to
That you might not even need Mario Kart if someone else has Mario Kart
I have no idea. Maybe if you're like I can't confirm this that's the rumor
I saw maybe if you're locally together or something, but like I don't know I don't know
It was like I did see an option where it's like
somebody's
Like got the game nearby so like it might actually be a thing
But yeah, I have no idea
Also, this is reminds me. There's like that YouTube short you made well as I'm geek and there's where it was like is crendor getting
The switch to and I'm like yeah, I'm gonna get it. It was fun
I like doing it, then there's like people in the comments like crendador is exactly the type of corporate consumer. I'm just like shut up alright
I was gonna buy the switch anyway alright, so what's the difference if I buy it now cuz I'm gonna play Mario Kart
I'm gonna play Donkey Kong next month alright, and I'm gonna play Kirby's Air ride. That's already three games
I want to play I wasn't just like I'm gonna buy it just to buy it alright
Plus the the people being like I'm not gonna buy it they probably were gonna buy it just to buy it alright uh plus the people being like I'm not
gonna buy it they probably were gonna
buy it anyway that's like me being like
you know what I'm not gonna buy the
Final Fantasy magic packs I'm not gonna
do it's like I was gonna buy those
anyway it's like obviously I can just
sit there be like I just hate it
I know those are the type of people in
the comments being like staying on their
soapbox or other shit but you know what 15 years of this all right? I'm used to it. That's fine
I think it's I think it's so funny that you
Genuinely as a person who knows you you genuinely might be one of the few people
I know who would actually truly use a switch to
Yeah, I am
Larry yeah, most people in our space only would get it just to say they
had it. Yeah, like I'm genuinely excited for the game. I don't even want it and I now have it. You know what I mean?
In fact, before the Switch 2 came out, I was playing like old Nintendo
games on my Switch with like Switch Online and whatever. Like I was playing
the old Pokemon trading card game. That really fun that's so funny because if
you were to go look at my switch to right now the only active game I have on
it is a thing that lets me play old Super Nintendo games yeah they got like
a bunch of old games on it it's great yeah when I got it working I started
playing f-zero for like an hour no it's like genuinely really good for that
Say I don't know I I'm happy with my purchase. It's great
I like the switch to and I got it before any crazy tariff stuff happens if it does so like I'm good
I'm happy Yeah, oh yeah, I don't know be happy. Yeah, let's just let you enjoy life. What the hell
I just want to play Nintendo game if anyone should be able to knock you down a peg it should be me so exactly chat
Stop it. Let me do my job. Yeah, let them aura farm chat. Okay, there's no cap
I think that's what we learned last week or whatever or whenever I don't know that we learned anything
But I don't think we did I was gonna say I've been here's the thing
Everybody's trying to get magic the gathering Final Fantasy stuff all I've cared about is playing it in Magic Arena
And so I've been doing drafts of it every day for the last five days because it came out of like Tuesday
I think for my area so
Honestly, it's a really good draft set like it's a lot of fun to drive. You remember how in
Hearthstone you could do a murloc deck? Yeah. You could just flood the board with murlocs.
That's what I want to come up with that. I need that kind of there's one like there's like rats.
There's sewer rats. Yeah, there's sewer rats. But chocobos like an easy flood one because you can
get all the chocobo cards and you like play lands and summons chocobos. There's like the chocobo race thing you get chocobos
Yeah, yeah, I definitely feel like that would be fun, but I also feel like that's some of those are pretty easily counterable
I don't know
Like there's there's a namazoo like the fish guys
I want to do maybe like a namazoo deck where because what it does is it not just hurts the enemy it hurts you too
And I feel like that's pretty funny. Yeah right now. I think green blacks pretty strong
Blue black is really strong pretty much. I think black is just a really strong color
I tried red white yesterday went oh and three never again. That was terrible
What did you who were you playing as red white? Oh?
You just drive black would be the way to go well you're it's draft so you have to take what you
can get yeah that's dude that's why I love drafting because it's not like
people just go in there with their net sweat decks because you have to just
take what you can get and build through the draft so I always enjoyed doing that
it's the most like crazy one because you have to like spend 1500 gems
but first draft I did I won six out of seven games so I won back like 1800 gems
and you have to keep all the cards for if you want to play like constructed or
casual or whatever so I did that yeah I'm not a big online game version of it
player but like I'm also not a big take it seriously in real life player
either so that could be fun. No I love draft that's like the only way I play
Magic actually and I've done that for I think Magic Arena came out with my
gallbladder like I remember Magic Arena beta I was just drafting and they're
like well refund all the money that you draft in beta I was like dude I can
double the drafting if I just give money now
that's what I did so there's I've had so much fun draft I think my favorite
drafting deck was Bloomberg that was the best one but honestly it is very cute all the
animals it's very red wall yeah I liked it a lot yeah yeah I love Bloomberg
that's the one I actually did a real-life draft with my friend with that
one that was great And so Bloomberg was great
But honestly, I'd say Final Fantasy is like a top four top five draft set right now. Like I'm liking it
They definitely put a lot of time into it. Yeah, it's just really cool. Yeah, it's really good
So if you like drafts check that out
everybody It's a good one. Plus you don't have to try to find magic cards in your local
Target or wherever you're going
Unless you just like collecting them in which case
True, I mean I
At this point. I've tallied it up everything. I'm about 40 cards away from a complete set
10 of those cards are probably impossible to find, but...
I will give it the old college try.
Yeah, that's all you can do.
That's all you can do these days.
Well, I wrote down stuff, all right?
Let me go through my list of things I've written down.
Okay, talk to me. Number one, yesterday I got food and when I picked it up, the guy
there, usually I have my hair tied up but I had it down and he said, yo you got
long hair you look like Jesus, man. Hell yeah, so he knows what's up. Yep, so I
thought that was funny. Now, do you know this man?
Is this like a guy who's usually there?
Yeah, he always is like,
Hey, what's up man?
And he just like gives me my food.
So it's like a local kind of, they do like kebabs.
They do like euros.
He's like, he's just like the guy working by the cab.
So you don't know this man.
This is just a guy you see with a frequency
that he notices when you look like Jesus.
Yes, correct.
I don't actually know.
It's just when I go there and he's just like, hey, it's you.
Because I usually get at least once a week.
Then me and Toaster Woman last week went to the wine place we took you to last year.
Love the wine place.
Yeah, we had one table sat down with the craziest stories
so this is what I heard from them yelling drunkenly out loud all right
great I'm already oh drunkenly yelling it well just very loud you could hear
them out of everybody so she was like the flames gone and they're trying to re-spark it as soon as I heard that I was like uh
that's definitely some lady who's like ratting her
friends relationship out
yeah and then she then she said again
loudly so she's talking to Sam and
they're like are you guys swingers?
I was like oh shit this is getting crazy
yeah I'm about to say hold on I hope you listened more
because now we're getting somewhere
but then she's like I don't know what Sam said
but he got a black eye and he's on the ground
and they're like I don't know what he said
but they're fighting and he was asking for it
so that was all I got
but so from what I have pieced together,
there's people trying to rekindle their relationship and I don't know if they're
asking people to swing or if other people were asking them to swing but
then somebody got offended by that and got into a fight about it. Like I think
that's what happened. The funniest part about it is the fact that she's just
out there dishing someone else's business loudly at the wine place.
Oh yeah.
No, that's the lady you don't trust any secrets with.
She will spill all the details.
She, she also looked like somebody that would be straight out of like real
housewives. So, well, all right.
Then everything's starting to come together a little bit more.
Yeah. No, she, if you would have seen her, you'd be like, oh yeah,
she could be on that show. They just literally do that. They go to restaurants together a little bit more. Yeah. No, she, if you would have seen her, you'd be like, oh yeah, she could be on that show.
They just literally do that.
They go to restaurants, just gossip about everybody.
What was the group that was with her?
She was with some guy that looked like
he was a wannabe CEO or an actual CEO
and a woman that looked like it would be her friend.
Gotcha.
All right. So it's just just sometimes you're out who she,
so she with the CEO or she, the girl who goes to the thing, like one of them is a
couple. Yeah.
And the other one is the third wheel who's there for like the hot goss.
And I would assume the other two brought the gossip lady
along and she's like, I have all the details. Yeah.
That's why they
bring her places I think so so it's either that or she's with the the main
guy and then he's just sitting around also Katz young I love I love the main
the main guy like it really is a TV show you know the main guy and then she's the
guy the main guy also I wrote down someone else there had a bag called The Tote Bag.
Boy, I bet that thing...
You know what? I'm just gonna look up the price right now.
I bet if I look up The Tote Bag that thing is too much money.
There's... I found one on Amazon from the Marc Jacobs store for $222.
Yeah, $195, $220... Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it's just... it looks like something they would
hate that one a leather one four hundred
fifty dollars it's just it's got the
tote bag on it like I don't I don't get
it that's I just look like somewhere
yeah just looks like a bag I don't but
ladies love their totes
This is why I can't be fashion stuff. I looked it up and there's a lot of other ones that are like really silly
Mm-hmm one of them is
Sometimes I'm kind of impressed this one
Please if you would crendor, I don't want to describe it at all. Yeah
Look at this bag. Give it a description. I love this bag.
Alright, this is a...
This is a bag shaped like a shaggy dog.
And it's quite literally a shaggy dog.
And it opens up on top.
And it's a bag.
Yeah, but it's like the shag on the shaggy dog isn't crappy fur stuff. It's leather. Yeah, it's like the little leather strips
That all that's like the passions that hang off of a lot of bags, but made into a bag. But the whole bag
Yeah, it's the whole bag
Yeah, honestly, this is a solid. This is a solid bag if I saw this I'd be like that's a cool bag
Like I would get that. Yeah, I'd understand it
Yeah, no, that's what that's what I'm into. I like that.
I have a bag that says tote bag, that's stupid.
A bag that looks like a shaggy dog, that's amazing.
It's also the
problem, like somebody bought that because they're like,
I like shaggy dogs, this is a fun bag.
You can already tell somebody just,
they're not as serious, they're just having
fun, they like animals or whatever.
Like the tote bag
person, they're probably like, I need to be they're probably like I need to be with it like I need to be cool I need to be
fashionable and you already know they're like tryhard and so yeah yeah there's
there's a bag that looks like a bag of money that's very funny like one of those
comically large bags of money from cartoons yeah there's you know take out
bag bags that look like they're from McDonald's and Wendy's that's kind of yep
Stuff in here, and then you know then there's the
$400 leather bag says tote bag again. Yeah, I don't get it, but I am with you
I'm not a fashion guy. I wear roughly the same seven t-shirts over and over and over again yeah I mean like we're again we're not like the best people would talk
about fashion we're yeah I'm sure this is you know this is popular for a reason
it's the same kind of thing when I think about the those cups trying to think
what those damn cups are the Stanley cups yeah yeah yeah I don't
even think people are doing that anymore I think it was just it was a fad it was from one crazy summer
let's see what else did I write that oh yeah I was uh I was doing my I saw my
doctor for my knee and he was like you got a good range of motion in it. You got good other stuff.
He's like, most people, this type of injury,
just take physical therapy, rest a bit.
It might take a bit longer, like a month or something,
but you'll be good.
So I was like, neat.
So my favorite part was I was looking up,
because now I'm seeing physical therapy,
but like not for a month, because they're so backed up.
So my physical therapist was like,
yeah, here's like, just do some exercises backed up. So my physical therapist was like,
yeah, here's like, just do some exercises on YouTube.
Don't do as much as you were doing,
because I was doing way too much.
And then I was like, all right, so I did some of those.
My favorite is when you look in the comments
and somebody will be like,
thank you so much for these exercises.
I'm already feeling better.
Like I'll post updates.
And then the entire comment thread of that is people being like hey any update
and there's just no response and I'm like dude I don't know if that's good or bad
like that's that's not good but a lot of time there'll be somebody that'll just be
like actually yeah it took like a month or two but like I'm actually better I'm
feeling good or like yeah you know it's you know it took a longer than I thought
but I'm doing good but it's always hey, you know, it took longer than I thought, but I'm doing good.
But it's always just the one where they don't update.
And you're just like, what happened to them?
Are they OK?
I think a lot of times people feel better,
and then they just move on.
Like, that's genuinely, I think, what happens a lot of time.
Because then you stop caring.
You're like, oh, I feel good again.
Cool.
Then you just keep going about your life.
Yes.
Yeah, I would say that's accurate.
Yeah.
So, cause usually the only people that are online posting about these things are people currently experiencing discomfort or pain or people that are like
experiencing that long term or it's still going on. Like people have recovered.
Just they're like, all right, cool. Anyway, like I don't keep looking up
gallbladder stuff. I'm like, I don't got that anymore.
Anyway,
the same, it's the same.
Like a thing is reviews when we're talking about that, that if you're happy,
you're not going to take the time.
Cause you're like, I'm happy.
Yeah, exactly.
So, uh, luckily my knee has been doing a bit better, although I did kind of over
doing a bit and yes, last night I was kind of feeling it like,
so I was like, uh-oh, so I backed off.
I had to slow down.
Cause like I was, I did some mall walking.
I like walked to the bench and then I'd sit a bit
and then I'd walk to another bench and then I'd sit.
And I did like some grocery shopping.
I actually went to the gym, did some chest exercises.
So I was-
When you say I walked at the mall and then I would sit
and I walked to the mall, how, like, how long were you at the mall?
Oh, like 30, 40 minutes.
Cause I would just like walk a bit and I'd sit down and be like, all right,
rest. And then I'd walk a bit and I'd sit down. Right.
I just do that a little bit and I left.
Okay. All right. and I'd sit down right I just do that a little bit and I left okay all right I just couldn't figure out if you're there for a while or because the way you
described it and I mean this in the nicest way right sounded like how you
know the old lady mall walkers at 5 a.m. on a Saturday they're at the mall they're
moving around as fast as humanly possible. But then as you walk through the mall, you see them sitting down and they're eating like
a full breakfast.
They're walking to the mall again.
I was just curious how you were doing.
I guess you're at old lady mall walker status.
Yeah, but maybe a little slower.
I'm not trying to go crazy or anything.
Right, right. Yeah, I was doing that because I'd just like sit on a bench. Usually there'd be like other older people that just sit down. Everyone always makes audible noises when they're older. Like even if you're not in pain, you sit down and go like, like that's just, I feel like that's just part of getting old. And you're just like, I don't even know why I did that. It's not like, it didn't hurt.
It's just like, you just feel the need
to audibly be like, ugh.
I don't know what it is.
When you're young, you don't do it.
Honestly, I wonder if it's instilled in us.
Because there's been times where I have sat down
and done like an ugh.
But I know I don't need to.
So sometimes I'll catch myself before I do it and be like, you didn't need to do that.
You didn't need to do that.
Yeah, I don't know.
Sometimes it just feels good to do.
Maybe it's like you're like you're venting just the buildup of tension in your body.
Oh, my God, that reminds me I was.
I saw some post somewhere, I don't know,
they all blend together at this point, and it was like somebody posting a
thing and said, I wonder what normal people are thinking about right now, and
I was like, number one, this post already feels extremely normal. It's like the
fact that they posted this just feels like that's normal to me.
Of like, anyone else meme? It's like okay. But then I was like thinking, there's probably like
varying degrees of normal. Because like normal just means like something that everybody does,
right? Or like if a lot of people are doing something then that's the norm, making it normal.
But if those people stop doing that thing and someone else keeps doing it, then they wouldn't be normal.
Yeah. I mean, normal is, is only what you accept it to be.
Like one thing you may consider normal, I might think is absolutely bonkers.
Exactly. So it's,
and it's one of those things where I feel like especially younger people,
like when you're younger, you want to stand out and be like unique and cool,
which is why everyone has their like I can has spork random phase right
because you're like I'm not normal I'm quirky and wild and you're like okay but
really you're just like everyone else that's like I can has spork quirky
normal you know I mean it's also the I dyed my hair black or I started wearing
baggy jeans or I have a chain that links to my wallet.
All the different phases of being a kid.
Yeah.
So it's, and I think as you get older,
I think part of getting older is just realizing like,
it's okay to be normal in a lot of aspects.
Like, you know?
Yeah, also again, normal's not a thing.
It doesn't exist.
Yeah.
There's what society says is fine.
And then there's, oh, well we think that's weird and that changes frequently
Sometimes things that I think are normal. I'm told her cringe now. I'm like what do you mean?
When or like people in other countries might do something that's normal there, but it's not normal over here
Doesn't mean it's wrong just means it's different
So that's what I think people just use they can use use normal in a term, in a sense of like bad or like, uh,
but it's, like, it's not that, I don't think it's that bad.
Mm-mm.
It's alright.
No.
Sometimes, sometimes you want to be normal in a lot of different ways. Although granted,
there's probably ways where you'd, I would say it's probably a lot of people where they're
maybe like health stuff or like things where they're like, man I just wish I could
feel normal. Like that I could understand. Like it's a turn of phrase not an
indictment of what is normal and what isn't. It's them being like I want to
return to like comfortability, you know, a part of my life where I don't feel like
I'm questioning all the stuff that I'm, like that kind of thing. Yeah, like I wish my knee felt normal. Right, right, like what's normal for a knee? You know what I of my life where I don't feel like I'm questioning all the stuff that I'm like that kind of thing Yeah, like I wish my knee felt normal
Right like what's normal for a knee? You know I mean yeah, yeah, so it's like that type of thing
But I feel like in the context I'm seeing it and where people post a meme
And they're just like what's it like to be normal?
I feel like they're they're coming from an aspect of I'm I'm very unique and like cool that like I'm not like normal people
Like what's it like to be normal? It's that yeah I'm very unique and like cool that like I'm not like normal people.
Like what's it like to be normal? Like it's that type of attitude.
Yeah. I, uh, it's again, the internet is very,
the great example of this is Final Fantasy 14 posted a thing that at Anime
Expo after it's over, they're going to host an event downtown in downtown LA.
And I was like, okay, sounds fun. I'm
not going to Anime Expo. That sounds like a terrible idea, but I would definitely show
up to this event and I went to go look at the responses and all the responses were from
people who didn't definitely don't live in LA being like, it's a war zone there. What
a terrible choice to have here. You should have it somewhere else people aren't safe and I was like
no no no no and I and I responded you know as a person who lives in LA ignore that that is there's protests in a three square block radius and LA's 500 square miles yeah like it is a very small
pinprick on a map of where there are people protesting.
Ignore everything you're seeing on TV.
They're showing you the same three cars burning over and over and over again.
Like, sorry, Waymo.
Like it's not, it's not a real thing that's happening.
The media is making this big crazy thing cause ratings.
And I was like, don't ignore that.
I literally just went for a walk and got a latte. The city's fine
It is a beautiful day here in LA. It'll be a beautiful day in
July when this takes place as well
Don't stress it and all the comments that I got were like I think people are really upset because they're afraid of ice detaining them
I was like whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa. I
Was responding to something totally different like why are you changing it now to be like well see
Jesse this is why you're the bad guy I was trying to say that everyone in the
comments saying that it's a war zone in LA was just terribly misinformed and
you're saying well the reason why people don't want to go see no no no go look at
the comments no one said that. Nobody said that information.
You are intuiting stuff into this conversation
that was not there.
And it wasn't the fact that I got one person saying it.
Multiple people replied that to me.
Like, well, actually Jess, I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, well, actually, the comment said this,
I responded this, and you're adding a third thing.
It's not allowed. You can't do that.
And then when I responded, like, actually I was just responding to the comments.
I wasn't even talking about that. They were like, Oh, well, good point.
Like you don't always have to fight on the internet.
I genuinely believe some people's entire,
you know how there are just some toxic people
who always, like their normal is a constant state
of fighting or being angry or outraged.
Yeah, and so if they can't have it in real life,
they take it to the internet.
Right.
And I genuinely believe some people just love to fight
and love drama
and if they can't do it in person they'll do it online and try to start
stuff and it's like what well it's even easier why just do about it they did
plus it's definitely the people they'll they're not happy with anything they'll
just be like uh here you go this is your water and they're like all this water is
room temp and they're like all right I'll get it colder and they make it colder and like that's too cold it's just like all is your water." And they're like, oh, this water's room temp. And they're like, alright, I'll get it colder.
And they make it colder and like, that's too cold.
And it's just like, uh, alright, I'll do this.
They're like, this place sucks.
Like, they're not, they're not doing my water right.
And then you can tell it's just, that's just who they are.
They're just always complaining about something.
There's definitely a personality type that is,
I'm not happy unless I'm mad.
Yeah.
No, that definitely is a thing. I don't understand it, but I've definitely even unless I'm mad. Yeah. No, that's definitely the thing.
I don't understand it, but I've definitely even dated one of those.
So it's like, do we always have to fight?
And it's like, yeah, we always have to fight.
Like, why?
Some people say fight.
I don't.
Yeah.
I'm just like, that's the last thing I want to do.
Yeah. I don't want to fight that especially
That's like so tiring
but I guess if that's your thing and you kind of get off on the idea of always being in a
Competition of words or trying to like one up someone verbally or you're always like drama makes you happy first off
Definitely see a therapist, please but second off
Yeah, it might be great for you,
but it's not great for anyone else.
Everyone else is stressing the hell out around you.
Yeah, no, that's the type of,
that's like the toxic person
that just drains everyone around him.
Yeah. That's just Lego.
Here we go. Not a fan of that.
Yep, no. But it's one of those things where,
again, the minute I was like,
I wasn't talking about that,
everyone's like, Oh, my bad.
Yeah.
No, you're right.
Where did you, where in what I said, did you pick up the information that you,
that like, what I, I just don't know.
I just don't understand sometimes.
Again, it goes back to the infamous.
I like waffles.
Yeah.
Well, pancakes are better.
Exactly.
This is why I never tried to argue.
You didn't need to say that. Yeah. Honestly, that is why I never try to argue anything online.
You didn't need to say that.
Yeah.
Honestly, that's why people are like, Jesse, you don't post as much as you used to.
There's a reason.
Yeah, yeah.
It's not worth it.
Unless I'm promoting something or it's something that I want to be really like, you know, oh
my God, guys, look, it's a new movie trailer.
I'll post that online.
But these days, I don't have online opinions.
I handle my stuff in real life.
I'm done.
I'm done with the internet.
I'm done like the keyboard warrior stuff.
Like I just, I'm over it.
I'll do, I'll do real life things instead.
That's stupid.
I don't want to get into argument with a 12 year old.
Yeah, exactly.
That's mostly what it is.
Sometimes I'll be like like I just bought the
new Lego Ninjago movie my mom got it for
me and I'm like oh no also use my
roblox code please it's really cool you
know you know you know what else is
really cool summer is here and that
means more warmth more more light, more time
outside and even though that doesn't mean Krendor and I will be that, uh most people, the normal
people, wink, they'll be out and about doing their thing, that's probably you, and we all could use a
sidekick when we're out doing our stuff that plays our favorite music, helps us listen to podcasts,
and even gives us crystal clear sound on phone calls
all day long.
That sidekick my friends is Everyday Earbuds by Raycon.
Raycon's Everyday Earbuds are the perfect summer accessory whether you're going hard

to give you 90 minutes of battery. Earbuds also come with noise cancellation. This active noise cancellation is great.
I have to turn it off though,
cause it's almost too noise canceling.
And I need to know what's going on in my surroundings.
I am still living in a world where I think about
all the movies I've seen where someone walks out
in the street and is immediately killed
in like a final destination way.
I don't want that.
I gotta know what's going on.
The best part of course is that Raycon starts at just half the price

neons, and that of course, let's you be yourself.
It lets you, you know, show off a little bit more, be a little more

Chopsticks out of the house's that traffic out there.
Oh my god, the traffic, let me tell you, it's crazy. It's backed up.
There's so many people, they're blocking the roads because they're trying to get the switch to.
Which, you know, I think they're out of them all over the place.
Well, there's probably some place that's still got them, but yeah yeah watch out for that it also looks like there's
some sort of I can't think anything there's a cat watch out he's crossing the
road the cat traffic is traffic back to you the cat traffic is traffic that's
like saying a human wait no like a human is an ape. No it's not,
not at all. Anyway.
Yeah, I don't know. You're going even worse than I am.
I was trying to think of like, yikes. I will say though, there isn't a, at least in LA,
there isn't a problem with switch twos Alex was telling me
that when he went there he got to the front was like so how many got left like
we have a hundred and forty left oh my god so they definitely sent a lot of
switch twos to LA at least yeah maybe it's just regional maybe I don't know
yeah I'm sure someone at Nintendo's like, well the market says they have algorithms that tell them where to ship them.
Yeah.
Boy, that's the traffic.
Okay, let's go to weather.
That's a very formal weather.
Thank you.
It's like an actual radio.
It's like, all right, well, let's go to weather.
That's right.
Weather on the fives.
It's weather time. Weather on the fives, here we are. It's a weather request let's go to weather. That's right. Weather on the fives. It's weather time.
Weather on the fives, here we are.
It's a weather request for holding down the weather.
We have a weather request for Beep Bop Boop San Jose, California.
My hometown is a pretty typical city, but I wanted to share with you a staple restaurant
of my childhood called King's Burger.
Yes, not Burger King, King's Burger.
It's an old small restaurant in the neighborhood that became predominantly Hispanic,
that became Asian owned.
When you look at the interior pictures, imagine Mexican band of music playing.
It is IMO, a shining example of a cultural mosaic.
I ate here recently and the food still tastes as fresh as I remember.
Also, we have a poop snake downtown Chavez Park I'm sorry what you heard me a poop
snake yeah San Jose California currently it is 73 degrees feels like 73 degrees
humidity 41% pressure 29.96 inches visibility 10 miles 546 a.m.
sunrise 829 p.m. sunset 14 mile an hour winds you got the dew point at 48 with
UV index of 7 and a moon phase of a waning gibbous moon the 10 day 76 Sunday
partly cloudy Monday 72 sunny Tuesday, sunny, Tuesday, 77, sunny, Wednesday, 83, sunny, Thursday, 74,
sunny, Friday, 71, sunny, Saturday, 77, sunny,
and Sunday, 82, and sunny.
I mean, that's Southern California.
That's no shocker there.
Yeah.
Actually, San Jose's kind of middle California.
Oh yeah, I guess so.
But it's soCal vibes. Um, interestingly enough, upon seeing King's Burger,
all the sandwiches look very, so in LA at least,
maybe it is a SoCal thing, there's tons of little burger places
called like Tommy's or John's or Bing Bong's or whatever. And they all like this. They
serve either a mix of Mexican and burgers and or some sort of Asian food
and burgers all over the place. It's just a thing that exists and you can get like
a double bacon barbecue burger but also like a great
burrito right it's just a thing that that exists everywhere and this is a version of
that that is i i guess one of the as same logo and font as King's Hawaiian and
I think this used to be a King's Hawaiian but they removed Hawaiian and
just added burger. I don't know what is King's Hawaiian? It's a bakery.
It's like a bakery restaurant kind of place. They have the best donuts ever.
It is, you know, like if you go to the grocery store,
you can find King's Hawaiian buns.
They're like the sweet, sweet buns.
It's just a Hawaiian bakery.
But if you look it up up you will confirm to me that Kings Hawaiian the
King and Kings Hawaiian is the exact same font as the King and Kings Burger
let's see and there is in fact a crown so it almost looks the same except the
crowns a little different. Kings Hawaiian. And I don't know if they're trying to capitalize on it,
or this was an old King's Hawaiian
that they then took over and made King's Burger.
Wait, King's Hawaiian does those rolls.
That's what I'm saying, that's what I'm saying.
Yeah.
But in LA, you can definitely go
to King's Hawaiian restaurants.
Oh, I see, okay.
Yeah, and you can get donuts and stuff in the morning.
I will say they're very good,
but probably 12 million calories for one donut.
They are like some of the best donuts I've ever had,
but also dangerous, just truly dangerous.
Let's see, I can see it.
Let's see, yeah.
Restaurant, and then,
Kings of Wine, oh yeah.
Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me,
especially the fact that they kept the king name.
So like, it very well could have been.
Again, it definitely has a,
when I used to have to drive to see my parents
when they lived in Kentucky,
on the way from Cincinnati to Kentucky.
I wish I could tell you what road it is, but anyone who's driven this road will
back me up on this.
There is a place that's so very clearly used to be a Waffle House,
except now it's an off franchise.
So they kept the waffle from Waffle House but removed house and just
replaced it with steak. So as you drive down the street it says Waffle Steak.
Waffle Steak. Same font, same logo, everything. It's just it says Waffle Steak.
Well, that's the weather.
Okay, let's go to sports.
Sports. We've got sports
currently
we have the
NBA finals that's tied at two games apiece between the Pacers and the Thunder
We got tonight's game of Florida Edmonton. That's also tied at two games apiece in the Stanley Cup finals
We've got the baseball still going on of course
Which is Yankees first Tigers first Astros first Mets first Cubs first and Giants Dodgers first
a lot of people ask how all these teams are in first that is because
These are all separate divisions
within a conference.
Yeah, if you're curious.
Yeah, so it's a whole thing, all right?
Then we've got,
ba ba ba ba ba,
the, let's see,
if that'd be, the NHL, or no, NFL training camp, Bop ba ba dee let's see Yeah
The NHL or no NFL training camp that's a thing going on and
I mean, that's pretty much it nothing too crazy
happening with sports
outside of that so
sports
sports
Okay
What is our fact of the day?
Fact of the day, day, day, day.
Day.
The Knights Watch cloaks in Game of Thrones
were made from Ikea rugs.
The show bought the rug, shaved them down,
and then dyed them to make the cloaks.
So they derugged the rugs, but kept the lining,
and that's what they used?
Or I have so many questions.
Also, what kind of rug do you think it was?
Um, I don't know.
Probably just the shitty rugs they got there,
to be honest.
Cause I mean, well, I don't know
That's actually curious because they got a whole bunch of rugs there
But that's what I'm saying they got all sorts of do you think it was a sheepskin cow hide that cuz night watch right?
Yeah, nice watch would have a hide of some sort so maybe it was a
Oolershlev or maybe it was a Coldby or a Tuftlund?
Dude, it had to have been a Tuftlund.
It had to be a Tuftlund.
No, it wasn't.
No, dude, it was 100% an Ullerslev.
That looks like fur and if you shave it down it would look like one of those Night's Watch
cloaks.
Oh yeah, I can see that.
I definitely as a kid can imagine putting that on and being like I am Lord John Snow
Well, I mean they weren't even kids they're just doing it for the show
Yeah, they're getting paid though. That's the only time you get me to do that is if I was a kid. Yeah
So yeah, that's pretty cool. Yeah, that's neat. Alright, who has come to us with tears in their eyes?
Dear illustrious sirs, with tears in my eyes, I come to you now deepest of questions, in hopes you may provide us mere mortals with but a fraction of your bountiful knowledge.
What's both your favorite colors and has it changed over the years? Ummm... I'm a- I still to this day
believe that my taste in colors
is like my taste in drinks and you'll vouch me on this
when I go out I get a beer
and I get the fruitiest, girliest drink
I can find.
Yeah, that's true.
All at the same time I
order both at once and for me I think it's
cause I like the color black and I like
the color pink. Oh so those are like your favorite colors then? Yeah it's
never changed never changed I like pink I like black. Like black I just think it's like
it can go with everything and pink is like my fun side. It's like the kpop
group. Yeah yeah just like them. I was black pink before they were yes
That's what you're saying. Yeah, yeah great
I
Love green and I love blue those are my two favorite colors. I like green. I've been told green and blue accentuate my eyes
But I don't believe that at all
I'm fine with black it works works. It works for me.
There's very chill colors, so I just like that. Yeah.
I'm not a big fan of red, but I can do like a dark crimson or a maroon.
I'm not a big red person.
Yeah. I like a dark. I'll take a dark blue or
black and then pink exact so there we go
and then hold it down dear illustrious
sirs I come to you with tears my eyes
coils draped in cloth and head covered
in ashes oh you could hug an animal that you ordinarily wouldn't consider huggable
what animal would it be wouldn't consider huggable uh but it is huggable
is that is that we're trying to get but like it kind of is uh yes probably
because it would attack you if you tried to hug it
uh I would say a porcupine they look super huggable but there's no way I
would want to
oh yeah I guess that's a good one it feels dangerous you know what I mean
they look like little cutie pies yeah
um I'd probably say
it's gotta be a bear. Hank the Tank. There we go.
Damn. That's good. That's good.
Because otherwise Hank's probably going to attack you. But...
Probably very likable as well.
Mmhmm.
And that's your Nero Lusterius Serves.
Krendor, it's that time. What's our new story of the day?
Our big new story of the day.
Day.
Day.
Day.
Day.
Hungry Elephant Raids Grocery Store in Thailand for Snacks.
Hell yeah.
Speaking of which.
A hungry wild elephant caused havoc in a grocery store in Thailand on Monday when he strolled
in from a nearby national park and helped himself to food on the shelves
videos of the first off how wild is this elephant if he knows to go to the
grocery store that's not that wild it's very civil else yeah videos of the
incident showed the huge male elephant known as Pli Byong Lek briefly stopping in front of the
shop located next to a main road near the Khao Yai National Park in Northeastern Kailam.
You're doing great, Lam. You're doing great.
Yep. The elephant stopped in front of the shop's counter, calmly snatching and chomping
snacks and did not flinch as the national park workers tried to shoo him away. The elephant
later backed out of the shop, still holding a bag of snacks with his trunk.
He left little damage.
I like to imagine, you know, he's holding,
it's like a Flamin' Hot Cheetos
and he's using his trunk to pick them out.
Yeah.
That'd be great.
The elephant later backed out of the shop,
still holding a bag of snacks with his trunk.
He left little damage behind,
except mud tracks on the floor and the ceiling of the shop.
That's my boy. I like that. Very Hank the Tank respectable.
He is. In a video posted on social media, Camploy Cacu, the shop owner, appeared amused as she described the moment
the elephant riffed her shop. She said she ate about nine bags of sweet rice crackers, a sandwich and some dried bananas she had bought that morning.
Yo, that guy wasn't an elephant. He was just high. Nine bags of rice crackers and a sandwich?
I know people in LA who do that.
Camp Royce said the elephant left without hurting anyone after getting his snacks. Then I Sucanthachat, a volunteer park worker familiar with the elephant, said Ply
Byong Lek, who's about 30 years old, is a familiar sight in the area and has been
known to enter people's houses in search of food. This is the first time he'd seen
him go into the grocery store. After he left the shop he went on to open a
bedroom window of another house, he told the associated. Oh my god
I don't know why I I know you just said open a bedroom window
But I swear to God you're about to say he went on to open a bed and breakfast
That would be pretty great if he opened a bed and breakfast
The elephant serves he's got to eat the food somewhere. It's the grocery store
Yeah
That I said while elephants in the Kauai National Park area have been coming out of the woods
to ransack people's kitchens for many years, but this year he started seeing them go into
more random places.
Estimated 4,000 wild elephants in 2024, according to the Department of National Parks, Wildlife
and Plant Conservation.
As farmers push into forests for agriculture, elephants have been forced to venture out of their shrinking habitats in search of food.
Which seems to be a running theme in the wild.
Yeah, and every story like this where animal goes to people place to eat people food, it always ends with,
We're really destroying their environment.
Anyway, what a fun story.
Yeah, so maybe we shouldn't be
expanding that much. Maybe we don't do that. Yeah, that'd be crazy. That's your new story
of the day. Okay, that's it for us. Thanks so much for listening or watching or
