Today's episode is brought to you by Raycon. Raycon's got those good earbuds for your ears. Let's jump into this podcast Before I report in to the hoarding, recording. Be all day, and my mouth just gave up. It stopped.
Dude, that's fair. That's how my body feels, especially my legs.
Why, what were you doing? Oh my god. Well, we didn't have an episode last week, so let me fill you in on the lore.
The lore.
The Kren lore, of course. Right.
Fourth of July happened, and as you you know I've had my knee pain
All right
And my knees been doing better, so I was like this is great
And I was like finally feeling good moving around a bit more. I was like standing more. Everything's feeling better and then
in classic crendor fashion fourth of July night I
ruined it again I
like pushed off
Weird going upstairs. Maybe because my body's not used to moving normally over the month probably and I
strained my achilles tendon or I say you know I like stretched it a little too far
Yeah, so know I like stretched it a little too far so on earth yeah so I was like dr. John what's going on here and he's like oh yeah that's just you know that can
happen just you got a rest and whatever so poor dr. John that guy has to deal
with so much of your trash yeah so. So my knee's better, but then I've been dealing with my like Achilles tendonitis type
of stuff all week and it was just the here's the worst part about it is that everywhere
you look people just tell you different stuff. They're like do these exercises and it'll
help it and I'm like okay and then then somebody else is like, those exercises are outdated.
They actually make it worse.
And I'm like, okay.
And then they're like, okay, do these.
And I'm like, okay.
And then they're like, so you want to keep moving a lot.
And I'm like, okay, I'll keep moving.
And they're like, but don't move too much.
You don't want to aggravate it.
And I'm like, okay, maybe I'll rest.
They're like, you don't want to, you don't really don't want to rest too much
because then your joints and muscles and everything stiffen up and then it's even worse.
And then you got to get back into shape and I'm just like dude I'm
gonna lose it.
I have like no words for this it sounds intolerable.
Oh yeah.
But I also don't know where you're going because you said you went places to get information
but I don't know if you went to like old Sue's apothecary of website or like WebMD which
is also a trap or you know like
there's so many places you could go and not find real answers well it's just a bunch of like
physical therapists on YouTube I make sure they're not chiropractors that's
number one like actual physical therapist I guess every physical
therapist has their own opinion on things yeah it's also a YouTube video so
if you got to see a real physical therapist in real life who knows your body I go next week so I
listen booking it I was supposed to go over for my knee and I've tried booking
it a month ago and they're like she's booked for a month and a half so I was
like I guess I'll just wait and then report to her when I get there so I
emailed her and I was like hey guess what my knees feeling better but my I strained my Achilles or whatever and she was like oh my goodness
well we can work on that then so I was like cuz I thought this is a physical
therapist they could only see once a month is that what you were saying no
I'm saying that she's but this is the first time you could get into her. Yeah, are you gonna do it regularly?
Well, yeah, I booked a bunch of them. So I see her like twice a week
But I had to wait a month to get to this point of seeing her twice a week because she understood
Okay, so I was like I think I need you to just like
Realign my lower half like I Like everything's on a whack.
And she was like, yeah, usually when you have like a leg,
it's kind of like one of those things where one,
when you start doing one thing, you compensate, right?
Cause like the injury I got is on my other leg
that had been doing like more of the work
cause my knee was hurt on my other leg.
So when you hurt one thing, then your other ligament
or joint or whatever the shit's probably getting
more pressure on it. And then that gets kind of worn down and then it's just
Then you're just all messed up, so I'm like dude. I just I need to get fixed
Yeah, that's what happened to me when I messed up my I think it was the right ankle
So I put all my pressure on my left leg and then by the time my right ankle was healed my left leg hurt all over
Yeah, it's not like why did I do that? Yeah sucked. Yeah, it's terrible
So yeah, literally when I did this I was like I had like a I had like a half day of depression
You put in a half day of depression
Because I was just like a the the previous day
I played warhammer with my friends, and then that day was 4th of July
And I was like moving normally and I'm like dude. I think I'm back to normal, but that was the trap
Alright, I thought I was normal again, but I wasn't I needed to go like keep taking it slow until I built it back up
And I moved a little too fast and then boom there you go
Here we are so I just like it's one of those things where you're like,
it feels like you're finally in the clear,
like I'm normal again, and then it's just like,
it pulls you back down.
So I was just like, I just stand.
I just feel like you operate under the assumption
that you have been normal before,
and I don't know if that's the case.
Well, maybe not normal, but feeling healthy
Activities without pain
That's your problem you assume you'll hit normal eventually
Hey, I don't think you've ever been there, but here's the thing I don't even give it
I'm done doing legs running any type of intensive exercise. I'll just I just want to walk
Just give me the ability to walk which like I can walk all right like it's just if I over walk okay
Let me fill you in again, so I it's the one day a few days later
I was like I get I love these story keeps developing in a way. That's like. I was doing fine
I don't know what happened anyway. Here's eight examples of why I really screwed up
I was like doing a little better do a little better. I was like alright
You know I went to the gym, but I only did my upper body so like it was fine
I made sure I didn't use my legs or anything you just kind of walk around. I was doing fine
But then I think the next day
We went out walking, and I think I just walked a bit too much and so that like kind of aggravated
What do you mean? What do you first off? What do you mean by that because in my mind like you remember?
I'm fat so walking too much to me is like I walked a normal amount
so what is what is the crendor version of this because I
Can like I'll see people who walk all the time and they're put in like 20,000 step days
And I'm like I don't know how you do that. I don't know they do I get like 12,000 step days. And I'm like, I don't know how you do that.
I don't know how they do that either.
I hit like 12,000 steps and I wanna die.
Yeah.
No, like I would say-
So what is normal for you?
Normally, when I would move, hold on,
I got on the old phone app here.
Let me pull this up.
Also apparently people hated the unedited episode
when I was reading the really there
What do you mean what they hate? They're like normally there's this thing is edited out. This sounds a bit better I
Guess they noticed maybe you pointing it out. Maybe if you didn't bring it out
But maybe hey this episode. Maybe I'll edit it. Maybe I won't
No one will ever know maybe I usually did like five to ten thousand
steps a day okay I mean like ten
thousand what you're supposed to do
right like that's the thing you're
supposed to do yeah I'm actively trying
I'm gonna let you know it's hard I don't
know who came up with that number it's
hard to do it is pretty hard to do So obviously my steps lately are down however
It's mainly just you know
Again, it's the hard part of like what they say they're like you want to keep moving enough that everything keeps working and gets a little
Stronger and you pull a load on there to keep everything active
But you don't want to overdo it to the point where it starts flaring up
So you just have to like constantly balance that which is why it probably helps to have you know somebody
Like a physical therapist looking at you and being like figuring things out and everything. That's why I'm excited to go
So it's it just sucks. All right. That's the main the moral of the story is that it sucks and
I'd had like my one-day depression arc where I was just like whatever man
whatever but then I was like honestly horse girls have kept me sane that's it's gotten my mind off
everything I am why I have thoughts but I'm gonna gonna I'm gonna please expand upon that statement
Because people don't know let them know what hers because you just said thank God for horse horse girls
They're keeping my mind off of this if they don't know what you're talking about that sounds insane, right?
Well, I mean listen most of our viewers out imagine watch
You know me or you or Dodger Jesse or all right? I just said you again. I said you twice listen my daughter
You know what I I'm so nice to gotta watch me twice
I can or you know stripping or criken or hey, there's literally everybody's played this game northern lion all right
horsegirl racing if you're living under a rock is the
Latest craze it is Uma Musume
pretty derby it is where you
race horse girls in a gotcha format and that's it. But that is it.
I love the roguelite training sports aspect of it.
Being like, alright we got to pump speed.
Alright we got to do this. Let's see if we win.
Alright we do here. Okay this.
And then just like trying to...
It reminds me of playing mad in franchise mode like I used to pick a team and I'd like do do fantasy draft
I'd be like, alright, let's rebuild this team or like we do this. We had different coaching
We'll get through all this. Alright, and then I simulate and be like, oh, maybe I'll watch the playoffs
Like it's the same shit. I do with this. I'm like, alright simulate simulate. I'm like, alright, we got to the good races
Now I'll watch them and I'm like it's it's what it makes me feel. Like I get that sports simulation rush.
Having played it, I will say the race bit
is exactly what you're talking about.
It is the best part of the game.
Even though as a person who might be the only person
on the internet who actually did the story stuff,
as far as I can tell,
because most people just skip it.
I was like, I thought this is how people were playing.
Very clearly, I do not watch anyone else play games because I was like, I thought this is how people were playing. Very clearly, I do not watch anyone else play games
because I was like, I thought this is what people were doing.
They're like, no, everyone's just skipping the story
and playing the horse racing bit.
And I was like, but Haru, she's so innocent and sweet
and she just wants to race and have fun.
And they're like, no, skip that shit.
I'm like, never, never.
So there's one of the horses.
So all the horses in the game, sorry, horse girls,
are based off of real horses.
They all have backstories that are based off of their horse.
And Haru Aurora is a horse that went 0 and 113.
And the whole thing was, it was just a horse
that raced for fun and was not very good at racing.
And so the character is this little girl. She's like the smallest of all of them and all she wants to do isaced for fun and was not very good at racing. And so the character is this little girl,
she's like the smallest of all of them and all she wants to do is race for fun and make friends.
And it's very sweet. And despite the game's mechanics saying you need to win, her story arc is
you don't need to win. Yet you do. Because mechanically the game says you do. Which is
insane to me but okay whatever the
well her arc is you have to get fans all right then you do some races then you do
a few races where you fit like literally cannot win it just makes you run the
race and you just it's impossible but then in order to win you have to win you
have to get first place yeah but then if you don't it boots you it's like sorry
sucker which is fine like I'll go back and I will definitely try to get first place in all those
races. It is going to happen. But I realized in order to do that,
I have to race other racers,
level them up and then breed them to make a better Haru. Yes.
Which is just going to take time that I don't know that I want to put into it.
Cause I genuinely realized I don't care about any of the other horses. They are,
they exist to make my Haru better is what I've learned.
So I was like, all right, I'll go back into it. I'll try it again.
But I also realized the level of intensity that some of y'all put into it,
like you are racing horses.
You are like breeding and racing horses at a level that is very much like,
um, you know, like FIFA football or manager or or whatever like that's what you're doing right now. Yes 100%
I'm not doing that. I'm like I just wanted to wait because she deserves it
Let's funny cuz somebody in my chat was like wow crendor is playing this I thought Jesse be the one playing this and I was
Like I think you misunderstand. I was like I'm the one who loves hyper competitive rogue like sports simulations I was like Jesse's
gonna try to read the stories either gonna hate it or get attached to like
one horse girl and that's what happened I was like she's such an underdog and
she's terrible at racing literally the first scene you meet Haru you have to
train her and she runs around the track once and then gets distracted by a
butterfly chases the butterfly you track her, and she runs around the track once and then gets distracted by a butterfly, chases the butterfly, you track her down, she's standing
in the middle of a river because the butterfly flew away but she saw a fish, jumped in the
river to get the fish, and is convinced that fish is the lord of the river.
I was like, what the hell is this girl?
Hilarious, I laughed the entire time, and by the end, it's like the saddest story
of a horse girl who's just like,
I just want to have fun.
And my friend, like she has a friend,
the plot is she has a friend who gets mad at her
because everyone loves her,
because she's a favorite, yet she sucks.
And the friend is like, I'm putting in so much work
and you're doing nothing and everyone likes you more.
And I was like, I don't understand why.
It's crazy.
I was like, I love this girl, and I just wanted to be happy
Got me it's um I
Know Sam as you might have guessed has put the most time into it and probably money. Let's be real
Oh, he has he spent hundreds already hundreds upon hundreds
But listen that man. I swear he does like three brand deals a week all right. He's got he's spent hundreds already. Hundreds upon hundreds. But listen, that man, I swear to God,
he does like three brand deals a week, all right?
He's got, he's all right.
He's fine.
Yeah, he's fine.
Yeah.
I know Synvicta's also put in close to that.
He's put in a lot.
I've put in 53 hours.
Some of those were like the game.
You've put in time, but I don't think you've put in money.
I've put in $34. nevermind nevermind well I got
the big gotcha got you I bought the rookie packs cuz I was like you know
what there's games I've spent 60 bucks on that I have not played this much so I
was like it deserves something and I'm having I'm having fun it's helping me to
get my mind off my ailments so sure I was like, sure, I'll do that.
But I'm not about the, I'm not going full whale like them.
It's actually nice because it allows you to borrow a card
from your friends.
So there's like one super rare card coming out this week
or next week or whatever.
And they're like, this is the card that they still use
in Japan four years later, it's broken.
So I was like, oh, I'm just going to take Sam's
because he's going to pull for it. and I already knew he's gonna pull for it
cuz today somebody was like Sam can you pull a thing for me to give me good luck
and he's like brother that card comes out in three days you think I'm pulling
shit like oh yeah he's ready like that man is he's gone wait a bit but doesn't he leave hold on doesn't
leave for vacation oh it's a mobile game
so he doesn't give a shit he's playing
on his phone you kidding me yikes he's
probably got his tablet his phone he's
got it on everything my favorite part
yeah it is a mobile game my favorite
part was we had a chat for our remember rematch the soccer game
I don't know if you played it, but you might have heard. Yes, so we heard of it because of you
Yeah, we had a group chat going for that with a bunch of people and June 25th
JP said horse girl gaming is live and alive and
Everyone was like, huh and Sam said what and JP said my chats losing it
This is so good.
And then Sam said, is this a gotcha game or something?
And he said that it just come out.
Is this why Japan's going crazy?
And little did he know he was about to experience just that.
Yeah, that is pretty much the vibe right now.
Everyone's like, this is stupid.
Every single person at first glance,
even people listening to the podcast right now
are like, horse girl racing?
At first glance, it is the dumbest thing.
Even I was like, what the hell is this?
And then I literally fell in love.
It's not even about the horse girl.
In my mind, I'm like, I have never been so interested
in a real horse in my entire life.
Yeah, right.
And I love it as a concept and as a thing.
You literally, the horse is still around,
living on a farm, you can go online and send Haru food.
Oh yeah, I saw that.
Or you can give her hay.
So many people did that if there's
a backup wait there's always like one of those beloved horses in the world I had
no idea I love this horse again it's a horse that sucks at racing but they put
in 113 races lost all of them and then years later I think in like 2019 or something as an old horse ran a like fun run and got first place
Which is just the sweetest thing i've ever heard i'm like come on now how can you not like this
It's all because of this game so I can't even hate on it
Yeah, I've dude i've had so many people in my chat
I mean this was even me too. I was what is this game, and I saw people play
I'm like I'll give it a try and then it just hooked me in and I people like this this looks dumb
And then they're like actually it looks pretty fun. They're like actually I downloaded it actually
I've got like 15 hours in it that it's like it's it once you get in
You it just it does something to you. I
Don't know it's it fills
Either for me it fills that sports
simulation vibe that I haven't had in a while which is why I like it. It it
definitely has the like the races themselves there's a little RNG
component to it and yeah you can put your character in different spots and
make them race differently but yeah there's a little bit of like sometimes
you'll get trapped in the pack and you can't break out and that sucks
There's a lot. There's interesting mechanics there. Yeah, and it's uh, it's actually nice because it's a even though it's a gotcha game
It's a game you can play for the most part pretty free like there's nothing too crazy like how there's some gotcha games
Or it's not gonna spend a damn
Yeah
So I'm having fun with that.
Let's see, what else?
Oh my God, we, speaking of which,
there's an anime about this show or game, right?
So I've heard, yes.
And chat was like, the anime's so good,
the anime's so good.
And then me and Toaster Woman were like,
all right, let's just watch an episode just to see.
Number one, it's the most anime show. You know, some shows are just, they're anime. Oh, I'm aware, yes.
The the trope, the anime tropes are there, like everything's there.
The main thing that happens is there's the trainer, which is supposed to be you,
like how you're the trainer playing the game and they're like trainer trainer right I may
have seen what you're about to say I watched a clip online that made me laugh
very hard but also I was like it really is asking a lot of the questions that I
had about this stupid show there the one of the opening scenes is this trainer
man is just sticking his hands up this horse girl skirt and feeling her thighs
right because in universe they're horses yes but they look like anime girls which is already weird
and one of the first questions I had while playing the game was what is the dynamic between normal humans and the horse girls because it seems very weird and that
scene pretty much answered that where yeah no he's feeling looks like you would feel a horse to be
like yeah this is a really toned horse but it's a girl and it's weird agreed it is weird we're both
just like okay but not only that it happened I think two more times in the
episode. It happened three times. I was told that's supposed to be the goof, but again,
let me stress, is it? There he goes just casually, you know, sexually harassing the horses again.
There he goes. They're like, he doesn't know any better. He's got kicked in the head so
many times. He like doesn't and I'm like
You could be you know he could be feeling up their calves. He'd be
It's like other he's like getting in there, dude
Man knows what Japan does I feel like we shouldn't listen. We give them a lot of credit like oh, but you know
When you play Pokemon red and blue there's the guy outside the Erica Jim
And he's like I'm watching the girls in there like all right
Like yeah, they know
So that that was enough for me. I was like okay
This is I'm not a big fan of the anime like it's it's just an anime anime to me
I just don't know. I'm just I'm here to just race the horses train them You know, that's what I'm here for. But again, I have many questions
In that universe because they just look like people is it socially acceptable for a man to be attracted to the horse?
You know what I mean? Or is it like cars? I would definitely say it is but they don't talk about it
Right, like are there I asked is there police horses or plow horses? 100%.
Are there horses that work jobs as
horses? But they're just girls?
Girls in a field carrying plows? Yes I would say so. In fact I would say that's
what they do when they retire. They also do stuff weird where it's like the horses
don't mate or breed instead they wish upon a statue
and then like a little sparkle appears and another horse appears it's super bizarre it's very weird
yeah well that's cuz they were probably like how do we do this without having
male horses they're like I got an idea yeah but there's still men in the
universe which is also very strange it's not like cars where everyone's a car
It's there's some people that are horses, but are just girls and some people are people listen. You're not meant as questions
Just is what it is so many questions
Oh Yeah, also on 4th of July. I did my nostalgic thing where I played Final Fantasy 3. Love that.
Did you play the new version?
Yeah, the remastered one.
So I really again back years ago. It was probably like 15 years ago
I played Final Fantasy 3 on the DS because I was like I've never played a Final Fantasy game before I'm gonna try this on
The DS and so I did on 4th of July and I played it for an hour if that and then I quit and I was like
and it's not for me but every year for some reason I would just still get
nostalgia of that like 45 minutes I played or whatever it was and so I was
like you know what what if I did a stream or I just played it and see how far I got so I did and I actually
got further than I thought I would I got to the part where you save the the
princess in the cave and the genie guys there and you beat him okay sure sure
and then I was like Chad I think that's it we beat the game and then I was like, Chad, I think that's it. We beat the game. And then I stopped. I realized how much you have to grind.
And there's certain games where I don't mind grinding.
I don't mind grinding in WoW.
I don't mind, but I think part of that's just
because I've done it so much.
And you get used to it.
But it's like doing it in a new game
that you never experienced is a little different.
I don't mind it, but I just don't want to do it.
And so I just stopped.
Sure.
Like I have to be committed.
I get it.
It was still fun.
I still enjoyed actually playing.
It made me want to try like one of the newer, not, I don't like the new, new Final Fantasies,
but like a medium, you know, like is the...
Honestly, let me tell you something that I think you would enjoy.
All right. Like is the honestly let me tell you something that I think you would enjoy all right
Everyone says Final Fantasy 10 is the perfect medium between old and new I think that's nonsense for you
play Final Fantasy 10 to
10 to Yes, don't worry about the story. You don't care about the story anyway right but mechanically in
Final Fantasy X, the character Yuna is a priestess who is going on this adventure to defeat sin, which is this creature, whatever.
But in Final Fantasy X too, for some reason, they bring her back into the a girl band. And mechanically, they have dress spheres.
And so when you battle, you switch between dresses.
And before she had a staff and did magical abilities, now she has two guns.
Dude, it's insane. You would laugh the entire time. I know you would enjoy.
The opening literally is a five-minute concert of her dancing on stage while her friends rob people.
It's crazy.
Genuinely, I have no idea why that was the follow up.
To this day, it doesn't make sense and I love it.
It is so off the wall insane
that I have no idea why they did it, but I love it.
It's a blast. It's stupid fun
There's no point to it. It's the perfect Final Fantasy for someone who doesn't isn't gonna care much about the story
All right, maybe I'll do that at some point or like a special mechanically the dress fear system is the best
It's it rocks. It's so much fun dress fear system. Yeah, it's like it's literally instead of changing jobs
You know like in Final Fantasy you change jobs or whatever right or classes in this it's that but you have different dresses oh
I see and so they call it dress fears because it just sounds cooler than the girls changed outfits
I'm not gonna lie when I was playing I didn't even know you could just like change your class
Yeah, people are like creme d'ore you have five onion nights, and I'm like yeah, and they're like you get to change it
And I was like okay, and I
Just think don't listen to them don't listen to them onion nights are low-key
They suck at the beginning and they keep sucking until the very end if you level
them up all the way they become the most powerful class in the game
oh I see what's uh what's the last pixely one they did final fantasy 6 it's
my favorite then seven is Polygons.
Eight is kind of this weird,
like almost PlayStation 2 level graphics.
Nine is like a tribute.
Honestly, you might like nine too.
It's a tribute to all the previous Final Fantasies.
And it's like, it's kind of a slow story,
but it's beautiful.
It's gorgeous.
And then it picks up later on.
10 is like the first new era, 11 is online,
so whatever, you're not gonna play that.
12 is basically like Final Fantasy Star Wars,
I like it, but I think the ending sucks.
13 is an anime fantasy that's out of control.
It's not my favorite, I do not like it,
but I understand why people do.
14's online again, 15 is like a boys trip but
you don't want to play the new one so you don't care about those. Yeah honestly I like the I like
the pixel-y graphics so I might actually try six. But also if you don't care about story Final
Fantasy 5 is very good as well. Final Fantasy 5 is a lot a lot of like jobs and switching jobs
and you can like it's very gameplay mechanic heavy
rather than story heavy. Oh, okay. So five might be your jam if you don't want to deal
with the story of six. I do like that. I like the sound of that a little more I think. Yeah,
yeah because basically the way that it worked is there were two teams working on Final Fantasies.
So the team that did six was also working on four.
But the team that did five was also working on three.
So if you like three, you'll love five probably.
Ah, okay, I see.
I think that's what the teams were, I'm pretty sure.
Or maybe it was four and five
then joined together to work on six.
Whatever the case may be, five is the mechanical one.
Okay, I'm sure people in the comments will yell. they'll let me know I know I got it wrong but
I'm not sure what way I got it wrong so I'll just stick with what I said oh my
god speaking of insane wacky stuff one of my favorite things on 4th of July was
watching the hot dog eating contest every year. Oh Joey, oh Joey!
Yep, he was back. He wasn't there last year, but he was there this year.
Because last year there was some like sponsored clash where he was getting
sponsored by like a
vegan hot dog or something. I don't know. Whatever it was, something happened.
But he came back this year and he ate 70 hot dogs
and reclaimed his title.
But, I, my favorite part, I was showing Toast Room, is the man that does the announcing.
I don't know if you've seen him, I'm sure you have.
He just wears the like straw hat, like the old timey fair guy.
Yes, okay, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
And he just goes on, like he'll announce all the people, he, yes, yes, and he just goes on like he'll announce all the people He's like this man has been brought to us by God himself. He is
pounds of baked beans and holds the world record for corn dogs
He is big Booker McFarlane. He's just like book comes out and he just does that but then he gets the Joey chestnut
He's like folks
We are witnessing something that the world has
not seen in history we are seeing a God amongst men we are watching the story of
the Bible unfold before us so what is happening you know what that's good
announcing right there I love that that was dude I I wish they got that guy to
do more events like he only does the hot dog event but like they should get him
to do like the PBS fourth of July they should get him to just do like some
random shit like they my family always puts on the PBS fourth of July and it's
just what's his name from Fresh Prince the Carlton yes it's just him, they love using Carlton for that.
And he's just like, hey everybody, here we go.
Fun family, friendly time.
And then they used to get John Stamos.
And then, it was funny, because I was like,
John Stamos looks like the kind of guy
that would just get drunk and yell at people.
And then he ended up getting a DUI. And and I was like dude. I was like kind of right
And I think they replaced them because of that
But I was like dude you imagine they got the hot dog eating man on there
And he's like here. We are for fourth of July fireworks America has been born again
We will now strive as a nation to eat hot dogs and send off fireworks like our forefathers.
And dude, it would be so good.
If anyone wants to hear it, just look up.
It's on ESPN.
Joey Chestnut reclaims his throne.
Joey Jaws wins his 17th Nathan hot dog eating contest.
Like 30 minutes, it's got the competitor intros and it's him being announcing all of it
so you can hear it in full force and then when Joey Chestnut comes out he has
his own song I was unaware Joey Chestnut had his own song yeah it's like how when
a guy goes to bat and baseball they have their own yes yes yes but what is his
song his song is like a it's like a
2010 crendor credit Wow machinima song it's not like
Eat it because that like how do you not have that boom boom? It's like
Hold on do I have it here? It's uh
Also, the guy's name is George Sha. Shea? S-H-E-A. The hot dog man. Yes!
That's straight out of 2010.
Formed from the shards of shattered angels, wielding the white sword of righteousness,
standing as quiet as truth. angels wielding the white sword of righteousness ladies and gentlemen while
we must all face the dark mountain of night forsaken and forlorn alone in the
ruins of our own minds he will never fail or falter for he defies the ministers of our faith and the limitations of our birth
Formed from the shards of fallen angels
That's what I'm saying, he says the craziest shit
Yo that rocks!
That rocks!
I love that!
Can you imagine this guy just doing just more events?
I want that now more than ever
Holy crap, that's just saying the most crazy shit
That's it. That's what's great about it is because it's so ludicrous the event itself
Making even more ludicrous. I think is what sells it is even being better
Yeah, the fact that he's just like shards of fallen angels form a god amongst men
It's like he's eating hot dogs, dude. Yeah, I love that. I think that's very fun
Yeah, like they're not taking themselves seriously. They're just over the top. Yes. Yeah. Yeah, that's that's that's really that's enjoyable
I like that. Yeah, so I love watching that every year. It's fun because it's goofy and then
I like that. Yeah, so I love watching that every year. It's fun because it's goofy and then
It honestly the intro to everything I enjoy more than the actual hot dog eating
So I think the hot dog eating super gross. Oh, not because it's eating hot dogs. I'm fine. I love hot dogs
It's the whole water dunk situation where they put the like that's grosses me out I hate it and that was started by
this Kobayashi
yes back in the day just to get crammed more food down and
as a person who doesn't even like if you get your hot dog on and like soaks into the bun and
The bun is a little moist even on burgers and I hate that I need a bun that is a solid thing if it's
Wet gross gross
Yeah, no, I agree. That's it's got to just be a solid. You know
Normal bun it can't be a wet bun like oh my god
I hate when they they'll take like a bread or there's one place I get
Like pita bread and sometimes they put the pita bread
like
It like touches the chicken and the chicken like gets juices into it
And it gets soggy, and I'm like come on gross. Yeah, gross hate it
Not a fan. I'm not a big fan of wilted things goopy things or
Bread that's wet. Yeah, I got texture. It's so gross and I watch people
Do that food eating thing and I'm like nope nope
that's super gross I don't like that now if it was just eat hot dogs without the
buns I'd be fine I could watch idiots cram a full hot dog down their mouth all
day that shit's hilarious but the bun the bun grosses me out no it's a plus I
always wonder what happens after they eat it like do they throw it up do they
just live with it like what happens I?
Think they just sit around all day and have like terrible poops
Maybe I don't know but I don't I don't know that many of them throw up
Mm-hmm well at least the ones that are trained you know what I mean
I think it just have like weird distended stomachs for the day
That's true, maybe.
I'd be curious, I wonder if there's a documentary on it.
There must be.
Surely there must be.
Yeah, there has to be.
I'm still thinking about that.
Fall on from the sharks, fallen angels!
We need someone to say that for us at like Cox and C crendor live and we have when we come out on stage
It's just like do do do do do do do do do do
Form from the shards of fallen angels cox and crendor
I would be honored to have anyone say that
What are you do anything else this week or is that pretty much it?
I mean, yeah, it's pretty much it. I've found that when I get home from work and stuff,
very stupidly, I'll start to play Darktide. I don't know why this game got me the way
it did, but for some reason right now, I'm just like, oh my God, I love it. I love being
like a big, I'm basically
playing a guy who's Judge Dredd and I have a dog and we kill monsters together and it's
great. It's great. And I don't know why I enjoy it as much as I do, but I really do.
And I think it's because I have a dog that kills things for me and I look like a guy
who just looks like, oh, I made, I named him the old, and he's an old piece of crap, and I go around
and I shoot guys with a pistol,
and I have a dog that tackles guys, then I shoot him.
It's great.
It's so much fun.
That is pretty fun.
Yeah, I'm enjoying it a lot.
And yeah, when the game first came out,
like a year ago, whenever it came out,
I played it for a little bit, and was like, eh, not for me.
Now I'm like, they cracked the code code what I needed was a pet the entire time to just take down monsters
Hey, you just needed your own in-game horse girl
Yeah, pretty much pretty much except. He's a dog and he's half a robot, but yeah same thing. Yeah practically the same
Practically yeah for all practical purposes yes. Oh yeah tomorrow
Practically. For all practical purposes, yes. Oh yeah, tomorrow, well the ren fair started up and I was like, dude, I am not going to let my legs stop me from a ren fair experience.
Well, good luck. You're going to next week be like, I am totally screwed. I went to the ren fair and broke both my legs.
Here's the thing, even with my knee, I was like, like dude I just got to prepare for the rent fair be good and then this hat and I'm like you know what I
Don't care if I have to just go there and sit at the mud show for three hours. I'm gonna have a great time
You know that's I'll just do that. I'll just sit much. I still exists. Yeah, it still goes
Why would it stop some guy told me the mud show was done? No still going I?
Check the schedule
Told me they were done. I was like
Figgy pudding is gone. No no maybe they just went to a different Ren fair something or maybe but I checked the schedule
It said mud show it's still going. I was like all right. Oh, yeah, so
Fantastic yeah, I can worst-case scenario. I show up. I walk to the mud show I sit there
Have a beer takes place you just sit in the mud and wait. I'll just sit at the mud people watch
Maybe like walk over to the the shops and walk back to the mud show area, and then that's it honestly
I would take that I need you to record more mud show for me, please
Mm-hmm last time we recorded that was years ago. Yeah, that's an update record of more mud show for me please. Last time we recorded that was years ago.
Yep that's true. I need an update record of the mud show. I'll do it. I'll make numerous
mud show tic tocs. Thank you. Yeah especially now and I can't move as much so I'll be sitting
there more. Yes good great love that. But you know what else you love?
Ho-ho!

I would be Raycon everyday earbuds are the perfect summer accessory.
Whether you're going around walking, talking, goofing, hanging out, or you're at the gym or you're crendor and you're at the mud show

We have something else good as a driving out there.
Oh my God, let me tell you, it's pretty bad.
There's just backups all over.
Especially if you're trying to get over to the mud show.
It's just mud for days. I think they had a mud spill.
It's spilling out into the streets, so I'm going to have a hard time getting there.
But it's worth it, let me tell you.
Otherwise, it's pretty hot
pretty humid and
There's man. There's a lot of weather. Thank you
The mud show had a mudspill is hilarious by the way
Like how how would that have happened more importantly were they trucking the mud?
Did they not think to make their own mud at the show a lot of questions zero answers love that yep
Which is mostly like the new stories we read here are questions zero answers or the horse girls
Yep, all right
Let's go to the weather
Oh boy wow we got 17 weather requests this time
Boy here we go.
If you don't get your weather request, that's alright.
Keep asking it.
There's a chance every time.
We believe.
You might get it.
It's just like me trying to get wow mounts.
I get, I've gotten two out of like, they increased it 5% and I've still only gotten two.
Some people are like, dude I got like 11 today.
I'm like, you get me. Uhhh, and...
Weather request for...
Guder Time? Pronounced, Gou-er dirt time.
France. What?
Oh no, it's French. What?
Gou-er dirt time.
It's my small hometown of a bit above 2,000 inhabitants.
The pizza place is great.
bit above 2,000 inhabitant the pizza place is great and a restaurant has a version of a local dish tart flambe or flamacoochie how wait hold on how do you
I can't even find this how do you spell this all right let me just send you a
little comment because I don't think this place called good or okay okay okay
good or good their time I mean it is it is what it
looks like okay so I said gooder time 55 degrees Fahrenheit humidity 91% 87 the
high 64 the low pressure 29.88 inches visibility 7 miles winds at 2 miles an
hour dew point 52 UV index 0 moon phase waning gibbous with a 540 a.m. sunrise at a 929 p.m. sunset that's a late sunset
uh looking at the 10 day we've got a 87 degrees and partly cloudy Monday
scattered storms 81 Tuesday 78 mostly cloudy Wednesday 72 partly cloudy
Thursday 77 partly cloudy Friday 83 partly, Wednesday 72 partly cloudy, Thursday 77 partly cloudy, Friday 83 partly cloudy, Saturday 86 partly cloudy, and Sunday 90 and mostly sunny on Sunday, and then Monday isolated storms and 90.
Okay, this city, town, whatever you want to call it, is gorgeous.
With that said, in keeping with European tradition, has some truly funky, disgusting looking pizzas.
Like I know that's rude to say, but I just,
every time we look at pizzas,
you would think they're so close to Italy,
that there would be some uniform pizza thing happening here, but there really isn't.
All the other food looks incredible.
I'm going to get some amazing restaurants.
What's the pizza place?
Here's one pizza place.
It's called Al Patti.
It has a 4.6.
I thought, okay, that's cool.
Oh yeah, what the heck?
No, those pizzas. um oh yeah no no those pieces looks like a piece I would make in like elementary
school for myself yeah that's like I think I'd rather get a blaze pizza beyond
yeah yeah meanwhile I'm looking at some of these other places the restaurants
look delicious but then they all have a pizza as well this place is serving
steak but then they're all certain pizza and it's like why though? That doesn't look good at all. But El Paddy's got a 4.6 out of 5 so
it must be good. I think it's a taste thing. Yeah it's gotta be. Cause I'm looking at some
of the other restaurants and they look like such good fine French cuisine. I'm like yeah
I'd eat the hell out of that
there's this one place that's just like
jacquardry boards it looks delicious
oh yeah I see that
but there's other places where I'm like
yikes dude
what are we doing?
there's La Table de Cote
it's a there's a
boar
with a chef's hat
that's pretty fun
it seems like every restaurant
has at least one form of pizza
I do not understand.
Dude, I agree. I clicked on this place. They got curry.
They've got steak and fries. They've got pizza. They got like, like,
what is this? They got pasta. Is this like everything?
I can't figure out what's happening. This is insane.
Okay. Look at the, look at this place at first. You're like, Oh,
it's got like some fancy desserts
And then you like a great I'm looking at like a chicken dish
That looks very nice the steak thing and you keep going down pizza pizza
We're just looking at his pizza and then like a weird burger thing
It's just like what?
What's a the burgers crazy because the bun is three times bigger than the meat. And I just can't, as an American, I can't handle that.
It just feels like things don't go together here.
Or like they don't make sense.
I genuinely have questions.
I don't understand what is happening.
But also it could be a small town vibe.
You know what I mean?
Like there's a lot of places in America where you go look at the small town food and you're
like, what the hell are we doing?
There's also, I'm looking at Maison Henry.
Dear God, all of the bakery stuff looks incredible.
Like that's a winner.
I'm not going to deny a French pastry.
That looks incredible.
Yeah.
I mean, I would expect French pastries to be pretty good.
And that's the weather.
All right, let's go to sports. Sports. Welcome
to sports. We have sports. There's actually not many sports going on. Baseball's about
to hit the all-star break and that's like the ultimate bedtime for sports. Like literally
nothing's happening outside of the major sport. That's like, you know, some like other stuff. Well, people are on the internet and on radio shows
talking about sports.
That's true, but whenever the All-Star break hits
or baseball, even the sports shows,
they're just like, nothing's going on,
so I'm just gonna talk about whatever.
Like, it's always the dead time.
But for baseball, Blue Jays in first, Tigers in first,
Astros in first, Mets in first, Cubs in first, and jays in first tigers in first Astros in first Mets in first Cubs in first and Dodgers in first
and then
Man was there what else is that NBA summer league is happening tennis is happening who will win Wimbledon
That's occurring who will who will it'll either be
J. Sinner or see Alcaraz
yikes don't know all right sure
Jay sinner I have to like it just cuz yeah there are other we sounds like a
porn star
Janik sinner from Italy I like Jay sinner better but you know I like Jason or better, but yeah, I like Jason then Carlos Alcaraz from Spain
so those are the the finalists there and
That's sports, okay
What is our fact of the day back of the day it's the fact of the day back to the day
You can smell ants.
What?
Heh.
Many species of ants release strong smelling chemicals when they're angry, threatened, or being swished.
Trap-jaw ants release a chocolatey smell when annoyed. White citronella ants earn their name from the lemony odor they give off.
The hell?
Interesting? I did not- I mean I definitely
didn't know that. I didn't either.
All I know is ants gave me that concussion
that one year. Which by the way
was literally the day after
my birthday which is in a week.
I swear to god. Everything around my birthday
some part of my body gets hurt.
It's like I had my
my legs this time, then it was my concussion
a few years ago.
Honestly, I would take this over the concussion.
I'm shocked.
So is it a smell that we notice?
Because they're so small.
Wouldn't it have to be a ton of ants?
Mmm.
Like would you have to get your nose up in there or is it a scent that we can smell in the air?
You know what I mean?
This thing says some people can smell ants in ant colonies colonies so maybe it's just the people that have super
smell all right so it'd have to be a lot of ants then it's got to be a lot of
it probably depends on the person's smell sure okay okay you would be
smelling formic acid which to some people as lemony or vinegar smell it is
a defense mechanism to ward off predators. Dude, nature's crazy.
That is interesting. That might be like a solid fact of the day for once.
That actually is a solid fact. I like that a lot. That was good. Yeah, that's a good fact.
There we go. That's your fact of the day. Krendor, who has come to us with tears in their eyes?
We've got some tears, folks. We got tears. shards of fallen
angels dear with tears in their eyes the
fallen angels they come to us these
begging for forgiveness and their
questions to be answered what they know
is not of what we know for they beg for the knowledge
we grace upon thee through our wisdom and
Through the power of the universe dear illustrious sirs hands on my knees tears in my eyes
If you had to force the other to do a 15 video series, let's play of a game in a genre
They don't typically play what would it be and why also never really
notice the editing but I will now always
listen during work I really set us up
for failure you did I really screwed
with us oh boy that's not good well at least
people appreciate the work I put into it
but I screwed us now they'll appreciate it
at least yeah now they'll wonder if I
edit it all they'll be like I didn't
Jesse are you editing?
Now you have to super edit
Something
Um I would make you play
Five nights at Freddy's oh
God I make you play five minutes of running
Oh God I make you play five minutes of running because I know you'd hate it
because I know you would not like
experience at all I wasn't gonna say a
dating sim but not five minutes of
Fridays is the winner I probably would
that's what I would do for you I think I
played it once and I didn't play it
again so yeah I think you're right no I
know I'm right I would I would make you
play madden specifically franchise mode
I get so frustrated because I just want my team to win.
I wouldn't want to do anything to earn it.
I'd just be like, you're supposed to be winning.
Yeah, you would play Madden franchise mode.
You'd have to pick one of the bad teams and make them good
because that's always my favorite thing to do.
And I know that would drive you insane
because then it'd be even harder to win.
So there we go.
That's easy. That's super easy.
I like how we both pick things to make the other go insane.
Well of course.
Dear illustrious, dear illustrious sirs, with tears in my eyes and a query held gently upon my tongue, I come seeking your wisdom.
Which fictional worlds would you say have your favorite world building?
Regardless of how much you like the character or plot?
I'm curious what makes for good world building and your enlightened eyes. Oh, all right
This is seems like a cop-out, but but it's not I
Love the world building and the song of ice and fire books. Mmm. I think George R. R Martin did a fantastic job
He's very good at world building the stuff in elder ring. He did the world building for that. So like he's good at it. Yeah. Uh, song of ice and fire. The
reason why I love it isn't because of like, you know, when everyone thinks about it, they think
about like the dragons and then like the Kings and the Queens and the people find like that's,
that's fine. But there's stuff going on in that series that he has not touched on at all. A great
example. If you watch the TV
show you know that there's Essos and Westeros and there's all those different
places, but if you keep going past where Daenerys was with the horse dudes,
there's a whole other place that is barely touched on and one of those
places is like a dark jungle and there are cities built out of weird, goopy black rock.
And no one knows what that's about. It's touched on every once in a while in the books.
The priestesses, the red women come from that place and there's a whole lore about like fighting back.
Like there's cool stuff. There's a continent that's kind of like Africa and people who go there either die
from disease or instantly killed by like weird cannibal people.
Like there's so much crazy shit going on and they barely touch on it.
And that's the kind of world building I love.
It's why I love the game Dishonored because it took place in like England ish,
but there was a whole other thing going on that was just if you read the books in the game
or you saw little lore tidbits you're like what the hell is this world? That's the stuff I love
and George RR Martin is doing a fantastic job with that in those books. If we ever get another one
maybe we'll get more information. Yeah I'm actually uh speaking of which I'm almost done with the first
one because I mentioned it I think before but I'm reading it and I'm at I think page 600 something out of 800 so I'm almost done with the first book
and it is like I've enjoyed reading it just from like a learning how to write
perspective because like I'm kind of analyzing his writing and prose and
everything it's like he really loves talking about milky white things he's always like he loves
boobs I love his like I forget what you call it but he's like it's it's like a
pros type of thing where you compare something to they'll be like his fingers
were like sausages right so it gives you that kind of yes the image in your head without actually being like his fingers were kind of, right? So it gives you that kind of the image in your head
without actually being like,
his fingers were kind of chubby and a little,
like he just says they're like sausages.
Like I love the way he does a lot of that prose.
Yeah, I'm a big fan of that universe.
I think it's neat.
Yeah, I'm actually excited to get the lady stone heart
in the books, because I know she wasn't in the show.
I don't know how much she's in the books like you got a little bit of cold hands right I don't
know I don't think I mean you get like some nevermind yeah I don't think yeah
there's a there's several characters that show up later who are not in the
series that are really important to the books and that's what shocked me about
the TV shows like how do you tell this show without these other very important
characters they just didn't they just skipped it and so you know yeah I think
what's cool about reading the books too is that I guess this is like for any
book but you get the viewpoint you're you not the view but like you get the
thought process of the character because like in the show you're just watching the
characters act and do everything
But in the books you actually get to be like wow this is what they're thinking
This is how they're feeling like and it's just it just adds another element to it. I love when books do that
That's why reading books is fun. Yeah, it's also um
I always say when people the like do the handholdy book type of things
It's like people read to like discover
Right or like figure things out one thing I noticed when I was reading the book like even though I haven't read Lady Stoneheart. I just read the chapter
where uh
Caitlin Stark's talking to Rob because he's about to go to war with the Lannisters and she mentioned something being like oh
He's got like a heart of stone, and I was like dude. He's referencing. He's like foreshadowing
Yeah, so it's like you pick up little things and go back.
That's what I think people love about those books,
despite them not existing right now. It's been like 10 years or whatever.
Yeah. That he does. He's really, really good at foreshadowing things.
Or not foreshadowing,
but at least leaving threads that he then plucks later to become something.
Yeah. Unlike I think on multiple levels, cause like, obviously he does that.
We're a point where it's like Ned Stark being like the man must swing the sword
that does the execution and then he gets killed because it's like the opposite of
that, right? But then you also have like things that are referencing books in the
future. Like he does a lot of that.
Which I think is cool.
But again, I don't know if it's just,
he's very good at writing notes and keeping
notes of what he told in the story.
Or if he really was planning.
Either way, it's very compelling to actually be invested in and read.
Again, despite the TV show ruining all of that forever.
The stuff that does exist is very good.
And so, you know, you could poo the TV show, but like the books are phenomenal
Yeah, that's why I've been enjoying reading them, so it's fun
I'm excited to get into the future books when it really
starts you know being different from the shield from the TV show is right now
I can't wait for you to hit the point where you are forced to wait like me
That's true, and then you go to check if it's out, and it's just George R. Martin crashing out
That's true, and then you go to check if it's out, and it's just George R. R. Martin crashing out
But I think that's part of it is that he does so much planning everything and when you get this far into the series He probably has to make sure everything's tied together
I imagine he's like a perfectionist and so he's probably like losing his mind trying to make sure it's all good
So that's probably part of it. We'll see
We ever get it. Yeah my world building that I'd pick is Studio Ghibli world building cuz I love it
Oh, that's good. Yeah, I love all Studio Ghibli
well, not all but like a good chunk of world building from Studio Ghibli is just like very
fantastical very
It's kind of like soft magic E where you don't really know about the magic
But everything's kind of magical in its own way and just like very nature heavy.
And it's just, every time you watch it, it's just very cozy.
So, and then they have like so many cool creatures and things too that I like.
Yeah, I think Howls and probably Princess Mononoke.
Oh yeah.
Have some like really cool wall building.
Yeah, I love those. I love my top four like
Spirited away is my favorite my favorite one. It's good. Yeah, I why we watch that every year on my birthday actually
That's like my birthday. That's very sweet. Yeah, and then a
Princess Mononoke, I like Kiki Kiki's delivery service is fun because there's not really a like
There's no drama outside of like being like I didn't get to the party with my friends or deliver that it's more like a feel-good
Life movie yes, and then how's moving castles up there. Yeah
That's a classic like that's a winner. Yeah, that's a banger, but yeah, I love Princess Mononoke. He's like nature verse
Yeah, that's a banger. But yeah, I love Princess Mononoke's like nature verse
You know industry type of thing but like it's it's a fun movie because it's like it's got the Ghibli charm But it's still covering like serious topics and it's got like war and stuff
Mm-hmm. So yeah, I like Studio Ghibli world-building. That's good stuff. Yeah, there we go
All right, let's do our big news story of the day.
Big news story of the day.
Bap bap.
Snake sneaks onto a plane and delays a flight in Australia.
I picked this because it's snakes on a plane.
First off, love that.
Second off, snake sneaks onto a plane.
Besides the alliteration, no way the snake purposefully snuck on the plane like he had an intention of getting on the flight and traveling somewhere
I'm getting on this flight, and they'll never know
idiots
Stupid guys they what are they gonna do expect a snake never especially in Australia. It's like expected
Right if any where that's the
place you would expect a snake to be on
a plane yeah he like gets on the plane
is just like a kangaroo a spider it's
like a whole bunch of first-class
Melbourne Australia an Australian
domestic flight was delayed for two
hours after a stowaway snake was found
in the cargo hold the snake was found in the cargo hold.
The snake was found on Tuesday as passengers were boarding Virgin Australia Flight VA337,
bound for Brisbane.
According to snake catcher Mark Pelly, the snake turned out to be a harmless 60cm green
tree snake, but Pelly said he thought it could be a venomous snake when he approached it in the dark and hold.
Oh, it wasn't until after I caught that snake that I realized it wasn't venomous.
Till that point, it looked dangerous to me.
Peli said.
Most of the world's most venomous snakes are native to Australia.
And it's true.
Yep.
I was just thinking of the
crocodile hunter. Oh I was thinking of
the guy who's immune to all snakes. I
don't even know what that is. Do we do that? We
had to have done that story, right? I
don't... what? The guy who was immune to all
snakes because he bit... he let snakes bite
him? I feel like we might have done that story.
We never done the snake... we had to have done this guy.
I kind of remember that. I feel like we
might have. I just... it might have been a long time ago.
I've told everyone I know about it, so clearly I don't remember if we did it on this show.
But I love that guy. And I imagine that guy, every time someone says snakes, I'm like, that guy would have been fine.
When Peli entered the cargo hold, the snake was half hidden behind a panel and could have disappeared deeper into the plane Pelly said he told an aircraft engineer and airline staff that they would have to evacuate the aircraft if the snake disappeared inside the plane
I said to him if I don't get this in one shot
It's gonna sneak through the panels and you're gonna have to evacuate the plane because it
Disherm it was not poisonous right well. I guess he didn't know at that point
Okay, so he said He determined it was not poisonous, right? Well, I guess he didn't know at that point. Okay.
So he said, uh, it wasn't until after he caught it that he realized it wasn't venomous.
So at this point he's like, oh, it could be venomous.
But thankfully he got it on the first try and captured it.
If I didn't get it that first time, the engineers would be pulled apart at Boeing 737 looking for a snake right now.
Pelley said he had taken 30 minutes to drive to the airport and then was delayed by security before he could reach the airliner
And airline there probably that was this guy
An airliner official said the flight was delayed around two hours because the snake is native to Brisbane
Peli suspects it came aboard inside a passenger's luggage and escaped during the two-hour flight. What the heck?
For quarantine reasons the snakes can't be returned to the wild.
What? The snake, which is a protected species, has been given to a Melbourne
veterinarian to find a home with a licensed snake keeper. Oh.
Okay, at least. Alright, I was about to say this better not be the situation that
snake they found that was getting all jacked up on radiation and then they
were like, we gotta kill it. That snake didn't do anything wrong. This snake did nothing wrong.
He wasn't trying to illegally board a flight. Yeah, exactly.
He showed up. Unless he was trying to sneak on. You never know. Sneaky snakes.
It rhymes so it must be true. It's got to be true and he said it with confidence.
