Starting point is 00:00:00 Today's episode's brought you by Factor. Factor's got those good meals delivered right to your home. Also, today we're brought to you by Cox and Crendor live with Chaluminati. We would love to see you there. Last time I checked before, it was six tickets. I have no idea if they sold out, but I don't care. I'm going to say it again. Please go and look. And we would love to have you there.
Starting point is 00:00:21 But that is it. Let's jump into this podcast. Hello, everybody. It's time for Cawcant Crendoll. Morning. In the morning. Hello, Live, live, live, live. Hello, everybody,
Starting point is 00:00:51 an episode in Crenor in the morning. Yo. Yeah? Yeah. Hey. I was taking a deep breath on that one. I could tell there was like a pause. You were doing a whole thing.
Starting point is 00:01:07 I was doing a whole thing. And by a whole thing, I mean just taking a deep breath to say, yo. And I'm here for that. I like that you switch it up, but not in a way that is important. Just like little things every time. Yeah, I mean, really, that's my entire brand. You think about it. Not really changing anything, but making it appear that something has changed.
Starting point is 00:01:28 Exactly. Well, I mean, kind of, because like, I don't know if you saw the latest almost too old for this. I have not. I was going to watch it when I got home tonight and worked out. All right. Well, I have a new webcam and I have a new green screen. Yes. Okay. I have a real green screen now. And the new webcam puts me in like just better lighting, better quality. So it's, dude, I'm like a real YouTube. Hold on. Can I ask? Can I inquire what you got?
Starting point is 00:01:55 It is a Yolo Live Yolo Cam S3 What the hell is this? Yeah A Yolo Live YOLO cam? Yeah, the only Yolo cam. Yolo cam S, I can't believe it's called a Yolo Cam. Is it good? Why did you get it?
Starting point is 00:02:14 Well, the only reason I had the idea was because I saw Noble He was like, hey everybody, I have gotten my new webcam. 4K thing. You think Noble sounds like that? You think Nobz sounds like Hello everybody.
Starting point is 00:02:33 Hello, everybody. Hello, comrades. It's a zai. Yeah, all right. How you say, Zalthe. You talked about World of Warcraft.
Starting point is 00:02:43 Yeah, okay. But anyway, he was like, I'll say that one company, the one that makes like capture cards, Elgado. And he was like, they sent me the new
Starting point is 00:02:52 Elgado 4K. I looked that shit up. That in mixed reviews. Some people are like, it's okay, it sucks, it's great, whatever. And then someone was like, just get Yolo Live or Yolo Came. And I was like, Yolo Came. So I looked up Yolo Came and everyone was like, dude, Yolo Came is amazing. And I was like, how have I never heard of Yolo Came?
Starting point is 00:03:08 It's got just like great reviews, everything. I was like, you know what? Screw it. I'll try Yolo Cam. And you know what? It's pretty good. I'll check it out in your video. I'm looking at it right now and it seems like no different than any other camera.
Starting point is 00:03:22 But then it's like our aperture's better and our lighting's better. I'm like, well, how does everyone know this? How do we know this? So, all right, I can't wait to see what, uh, what's going on on your end. I'm excited. Yeah. So it's, uh, it's top tier. Check it out.
Starting point is 00:03:38 I'm like a, a real YouTuber now. Hmm. Okay. Real. All right. All right. All right. Um, so yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Did that. Uh, why'd I bring this up? I don't even know why I brought this up. I don't know. You were, because, I don't know. You asked me if I had seen it, and I said no, and then here we are. Oh, yeah. I guess that was something that I've been doing this week. So, yeah, I've been doing that. That's been great.
Starting point is 00:04:06 Because now, even when I do my tier list on my channel, like I just made ranking all the World Warcraft major cities based on how long I would live there, as one does. And I can now do that where my camera is like green screen with the background. So I just look like I'm chilling there, which is like a streamer thing people have been doing for a long time. But I do like it for videos now and stuff. It is pretty neat. All right. That's neat. I'll check it out.
Starting point is 00:04:36 I have never heard of this brand before, not once. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I've been using all sorts of cameras. So I'm curious if it is better. I'll have to go back and look at old videos now. Ugh, what a scam. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:51 I mean, I still use the Logitech. one for when I'm streaming and stuff, but I wanted a better one for YouTubeing and, you know, because like YouTube is more like discoverability than anything as we've talked about. Sure. Where like you're going to probably get discovered the most on YouTube. Streaming is just people watching you that know who you are for the most part. But yeah, YouTube is always like they're going to see your shorts and be like, who's this guy?
Starting point is 00:05:21 Or I haven't seen him in forever. Like, hey, this is better quality. than the shitty green screen. So, yeah. I don't know. There's something fun about your shitty green screen. I'll have to see what this new one's like. You being half invisible always was good for me.
Starting point is 00:05:36 There's still some jankiness to it, right? Because I still refuse to use proper lighting. Good. All right. As long as that's the case. I don't want you to try. Yeah, it's still like kind of blend and weird with your shirt or part of your shirt looks a little brighter
Starting point is 00:05:51 because it's like part of the green screen thing. So yeah, and there's still like a slight green hue, but it's not crazy. But it's like 90% better. All right. You know what? I'll take 90% better. Yeah, but trust me, I'll never go full 100%. Thank God.
Starting point is 00:06:06 I would hate it if you did. That's just, that's not me. Can't do it. Can't do it. How was your week? Good, good. I have an amazing story to tell you. It's the most L.A. thing.
Starting point is 00:06:21 I've never in my life experienced this, but I've seen it on TV. I'm aware of these people exist, but I was glad I got to experience with people at lunch. I went out to lunch at this place, Roberta's in L.A. I think there's a few in New York, but it's like a pizza place, right? But mostly it's known because the bread is delicious.
Starting point is 00:06:40 The pizzas are all right. They're fine. The bread that they're making the pizzas with, and they sometimes just serve bread as is. It's so good. So I got like a salad and ate bread. That's what I did. But while we were there, behind us, these two women walk in.
Starting point is 00:06:56 And I'm going to say one was suspiciously old, but definitely had work done. And one seemed like she was, I'm going to say, 22 barely, right? All right. And they both looked like not models, but like fashionistas. That makes any sense. Yeah, I can. And they very much clearly were in the fashion world or wanted to be. Because from the minute they sat down, their conversation was crazy.
Starting point is 00:07:34 So the older woman immediately starts talking about the new handbag she has that she brought with her. And she's talking about how she loves this handbag. And it was a brand I'd never heard of, that's for sure. But she kept mentioning the brand and talking about it like it was hot. shit, but she was upset because I guess other people had discovered this brand and so now
Starting point is 00:07:57 it was too trendy and she's like, I have to get rid of this bag. And I was like, girl, what? It was so funny because I kept writing down all the notes of she was just like, she's so upset that other people have the bag, she must sell her bag.
Starting point is 00:08:14 Like that's, she talked about it for like 10 minutes. She was like, I just hate when I discover something. And then other people find it and then just ruin it. I can never wear it again. I'm like, what? That is crazy. The fact that you're just like, well, now it's ruined because everyone else. Because everyone else. Yes. Yeah. And then she went on to shoes. She started talking about what shoes she had found and how she was there for some shoes launch. Again, brands I've never heard of. Very probably like a high class, you know, I don't know, $700 for a shoe kind of shoe.
Starting point is 00:08:52 And she's talking about like how she was wearing this brand before anyone else. And now everyone wears that she has to find a new brand to wear. But it's so hard to find new brands because all the new brands are trash. And she likes to stick with the classics. But the classics are over exposed now. And I'm like, oh my God, lady. Meanwhile, the girl who's with her is literally like, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:09:15 She has not said anything except mm-hmm, the entire. time. Then the young girl finally speaks up and is like my biggest problem is that I can't find anything that fits. And the woman's like, oh, been there. And the girl's
Starting point is 00:09:33 like, yeah, extra small is just too big. There's nothing under that when it comes to normal sizes. And I was like, all right, okay, okay. What a problem to have. That sounds terrible for you. she's like everything's too big for me
Starting point is 00:09:50 she was saying that when she goes out and she gets dresses she has to have them be custom tailored to fit her and when she buys jeans she just zip ties or something the back of them so that they're smaller otherwise they would fall down all the time couldn't she just like buy clothes from Japan or something I mean I'm sure you I'm sure you could
Starting point is 00:10:13 but then the best part was is then they mentioned Balenciaga, right? And the older woman goes, oh my God, don't get me started. And then they proceeded to have, I'm going to say a 45-minute conversation where they were judging the absolute shit
Starting point is 00:10:33 out of Blenciaga, the executives, the models, everyone. They were like, oh, they're so tacky. They called the models ugly. Dude, I was like, what is happening? They were the cattyest. women I've ever seen in my entire life. They just, it was, it was like devil wears product kind of stuff.
Starting point is 00:10:54 Yeah, that's, I'm, that seems straight out of like a sex in the city. Yes, I'm aware they exist. These people definitely do exist. But I've never been close enough to one to witness an entire conversation. It was exactly like movies or TV shows. We're like, oh no, these people are intolerable. And that's what it was. It was wild, dude. I was away. I took, I just had to take notes. I was like, oh my God. I literally wrote down, it's been 15 minutes. They're still critiquing models. That's, yeah, that's, that's a lot of critiquing. Again, I don't know if they were models or they worked in the fashion industry or they were just ladies with opinions. I don't know. But my
Starting point is 00:11:36 God, they did not, they didn't have a conversation that wasn't clothes focused the entire time. It was all about clothes. That's it. But you also said that one woman. was talking far more than the other one about it. Yes, yes, yes. The older woman was definitely talking more. It could have been like she was there to work for her. They had a meeting or I don't know. I don't know what this was.
Starting point is 00:11:59 But yeah, the young girl, and I say girl, she was like 22. But the young woman the entire time was just like, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Yeah, I mean, everybody always has a yes person. A lot of the talkers. That was her yes person, I guess. It was crazy. Yeah, that's, I mean, that also just sounds very L.A.
Starting point is 00:12:21 So I wouldn't say it's that crazy in L.A. I've never experienced in L.A. You know what I mean? Like, I guess I'm just not in that part of L.A. to experience that. That's true. I guess L.A. is broken down very much into, like, different areas where you're more likely to experience that. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:38 And I am not in that area. Yeah. You're in the area where there's, you know, people that show up with their. family and scream and then the Easter bunny comes over and doesn't... That's where I'm at. I'm at the area where a woman shows up
Starting point is 00:12:53 in the Virgin Killer sweater at brunch. Yeah, that's where I am. I'm not... No one over here is trying to dress up nice. Although, dude, oh my God. I was... I'm too nice.
Starting point is 00:13:08 I'm just too nice, is what the answer is to this entire thing I'm about to tell you. But I was coming back to my apartment complex, and I was like, you know, going to pull in. There was this like, old man kind of walking, and I was going to let him go, right?
Starting point is 00:13:23 I was going to let this old man go. And he just zoned out. I don't know what his thing was. I was being patient. And then he stood right where I was trying to turn, got his phone out, and looked around. Like he didn't know what the hell was going on. I was like,
Starting point is 00:13:40 so then I'm stuck there waiting for this guy. I don't know what to do. So I go, you know, to give him a little honk. And then he just looks at me like I've ruined his day. And he storms off. And then I go to turn into the parking garage. And as I enter the parking garage, there's a dude inside, I guess, an Uber dropping someone off. But they're right in front of the gate I need to go to to get to where I have to park my car.
Starting point is 00:14:07 All right. And so they're having a conversation. I'm like, why would you? Why? But I don't, I just wait patiently. I wait. I wait. I'm like, you know, I'm just going to wait.
Starting point is 00:14:17 The guy gets out of the car, he leaves. Dude in the car for the Uber gets his phone out and starts taking another ride. And I'm like, honk. And then he starts screaming at me. And I'm like, oh, my God. I can't. I can't. I just, I feel like I'm, I'm too nice.
Starting point is 00:14:34 I should have just been yelling and screaming and been, you know, American about it. Because holy shit. I was just like, trying to be patient. like trying to just get through life and people will definitely abuse that. Oh, absolutely. They, I mean, a lot of the people get to where they are in life by taking advantage of that and taking advantage of other people.
Starting point is 00:15:01 Just look at, um, look at that one billionaire shark tank guy. Uh, Kevin O'Leary or whatever. Yes. Yeah, that guy sucks. That guy absolutely would do some shit like that. He's the one where he's like, people just need to like learn to make a sandwich at home instead of spending like $30 on lunch. It's like, okay, yeah. You guarantee he did not do that growing up.
Starting point is 00:15:24 He's like, always been rich. Yeah. It's like, yeah. It's easy to say that to people and you don't have to worry about money. I mean, that's what most people do when they don't have to worry about money. They'll say things like, well, money doesn't buy happiness. Like, no, it does. It clearly does.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Yeah. No, it does. I mean, it buys comfort and security, which in return gives you happiness. Yeah, yeah. If you don't have to worry about the bills you're paying, that's one less thing you have to worry about. Yeah, you don't have to worry about bills. You don't have to be like, oh, man, I hope I can afford my rent or my mortgage. I hope I can, you know, I hope no health problems show up or my car doesn't break down or like any of these things happen.
Starting point is 00:16:03 If they do, I'm going to have to like take out a new credit card or get a loan. They're just like, I'll just pay for it. It's like, no wonder you're happy. And then you can just go to a restaurant and try like super wines. They go out on their boat. Apparently he like hits someone with his boat or some shit. Like the fact that you already have a boat. Of course he did.
Starting point is 00:16:23 Listen, if you have a boat, you're in your own, you're in the next plane of wealth. Yeah. If you have a boat that isn't also your house, you're in the next plane. There may people who live on their boat and I don't know that they're wealthy. It was like that Florida guy that was like living in his little tiny boat. the hurricane and he's like, I'll be fine, but he wasn't. That sounds like that in Florida. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That guy, he falls into that category.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Plus, he was like selling the like $11 fries at his one restaurant. That guy just sucks. Yeah, there's a little bit of hypocrisy to all of that. I feel like one of the big things people in life need to do, and I definitely have done this and I live by this, sometimes you're not the messenger for things. Like you may have an opinion and you may want to say a thing, but sometimes don't because you're not the person who should.
Starting point is 00:17:19 Yeah, no, absolutely. It's, uh, there's definitely a time and a place for a lot of things. But yeah, it's, it's very much that. But I mean, we're at the era where everybody can give their opinion on everything at any time. So,
Starting point is 00:17:34 um, oh my God, that reminds me. because he's like building some big-ass Utah data center that everyone's trying to fight. But I recently, as somebody who's obviously been doing more YouTube, I keep up with the YouTube news, and they are now adding a feature
Starting point is 00:17:52 that will automatically label AI videos. But how does it detect? I don't know. But I guess YouTube has their ways. I'm really curious because now that everyone's kind of trying to figure out what AI is, people also don't have definitive answers anymore because it's getting so good but also it's still kind of weird.
Starting point is 00:18:12 So if an artist, like a normal artist, makes something but they mess up in some way, people are like this is AI. Like a great example is, I don't, again, I have no confirmation if this is AI or not, but Final Fantasy 14, the band from the game is going to be at some like rock thing
Starting point is 00:18:27 in Europe or the UK or wherever the hell it is. And they made some sort of rock theme shirts. You know what I mean? like it has the crazy font but they made some shirts anyway on those shirts people are saying those are AI design shirts
Starting point is 00:18:44 but other people are like no no it's just artistic choices that have been made and it's to the point where I don't know that anyone really knows the people who design the shirts are like these weren't AI but other people are like it's clearly AI and so I'm really curious how YouTube's going to determine
Starting point is 00:19:02 what is AI and what isn't Like, I'm sure it's going to get some stuff wrong. For sure. But I would say it's probably using a similar system to their current one that's demonetizing AI Slop videos. Because I've seen there's a big wave of demonetization for all the Slop channels because you can go on, obviously on Twitter and look for the blue check marks. You'll find all of them. That's where they all are. Then they're just like, dude, I got demonetized.
Starting point is 00:19:33 this is crazier like YouTube using AI, but yet we can't use AI. And it's like, well, there's a difference here. YouTube's using AI as a tool to detect something. You're using AI to create shitty non-creative slop videos to flood the platform and make money off it. Right? Like, there's a vast difference in what it's being used for between these two things. But so now those people are getting mad. So I imagine it's doing a similar thing because it'll detect like, is there a face in these videos?
Starting point is 00:20:02 That's a big one. Like, is there an actual human? Probably the movement of the human to make sure that's not AI. Like the way the audio is, the what I'm sure AI has little quirks that kind of show when you watch it, especially if another AI is like analyzing it. We should submit the video of that dude who is drinking the coffee, that teacher. Oh, yeah. And see if it says it's AI.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Because I still to this day don't know. And it seemed like it was, but also not. that's the one we should submit. I want to know if that's AI. Because that coffee should have spilled, but it didn't. I thought that too. But other people were referencing, like, that's just the coffee swivel theorem. I don't know whatever they said.
Starting point is 00:20:45 And they're like, that just happens with physics. So, like, it might be that. But I still think his mouth moved weird. Like, he may be using AI filters or something. It definitely seemed like something was wrong. Yeah. I'd be fine if the, if it just said, like, oh, it's not. AI, but he is demonically possessed.
Starting point is 00:21:03 You know what I mean? Like, just an answer would be great. Yeah. And I think, honestly, the big thing I want here is just clarity with everything, right? Like, if you don't mind watching the AI thing and it says, AI, well, then there you go. Now you know. But if somebody doesn't want to watch that and I can go, oh, this is AI, I'm not watching this. Right?
Starting point is 00:21:20 Just the clarity behind it. But the fact that people are getting mad about having clarity, I think is funny because it means they want to trick you into watching their things. they know that if you don't, you're not going to watch they'll make less money. Like that's what it's all about. Like remove the money aspect, then there wouldn't be any like AI slop on YouTube. I literally read that article about the dude who created like a,
Starting point is 00:21:41 like a sexy influencer Instagram girl and he was just some guy in India and he made a ton of money before people realized he wasn't real. And I'm like, we can't allow this to happen. Y'all, it's already too, people are already pretending to be someone they're not
Starting point is 00:21:57 online. At least it should look like them. You know what I mean? Yeah. I mean, even just if you go on Twitter, like the amount of people, the blue checkmark people would say shit to just rage bait for content
Starting point is 00:22:12 because then they make money off of the replies and all that shit. So it's like, it just sucks because then they, I don't even know if it's them replying or a bot. It's probably a bot. And they'll reply like every single comment. That's how I know that they're like making money
Starting point is 00:22:27 off this shit or just trying to you know, do something that's going to benefit them in some way. Because they'll just, someone will be like, why are you tweeting this? And they'll be like, why not? And someone's like, this doesn't make sense. And they'll be like, it makes perfect. Like they reply to every single comment. And I'm like, this is not normal.
Starting point is 00:22:41 This is definitely, they're doing something here. Yeah. I mean, it's some people, it's their job. They wake up, they start some shit online, and they spend the rest of the day farming that outrage. Yeah. And not only that, now we have the Twitch, uh, saying that they're going to do the AI,
Starting point is 00:22:58 midstream update? You see that one? I saw it. I have no idea what it means, but I'm aware it exists. Yeah, it's like they're gonna... What was the wording they said? Oh yeah, here it is. Today we're announcing our new midstream summary experiment. Stream summaries will generate a brief synopsis
Starting point is 00:23:17 of what has been happening in the stream so you can jump right in without feeling like you missed out. I don't think I have ever once joined a stream and been like, man, I wish I knew it was happening, so I wasn't missing out. Yeah. I mean, I guess if you are going to like a big time just chatting streamer and you have a desire to know what is happening.
Starting point is 00:23:44 But even then, yeah, I'm with you. When I show up, I'm fine. I don't need the backstory. Yeah. Or it's like you could just ask the chat. Although at that point, usually their chats are going 8 million miles an hour, spam and like dumb shit. So like, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:24:02 But yeah, it's, I just, I hate it. Anyway, I don't know why I'm here, but I do have a story. I do know why you're here. I'm not to say, I know why you're here because you have a story for me about Costco. You said I need to ask. Yes, I need to bring up the, the Costco story. So. Okay.
Starting point is 00:24:22 Last week, we went to Costco. All right. We were going to buy, uh, somebody who's like, dude, just buy Garland. garbage bags at Costco. You get like 200 for like 10 bucks or something. I was like, dude, hell yeah. I'll get some Costco garbage bags. Uh, and then we also got like coffee. Because you can, listen, in this economy, all right? You get coffee at the grocery store. In this account, what's the deal? What's the deal? You go to the grocery store and you get like a bag of normal coffee. It's like 10 bucks.
Starting point is 00:24:53 If you're getting just like some like decent coffee or something, maybe more. Um, you go to Costco, dude, you get a giant ass bag for like $15. It's like an insane deal. I'm like, this is fantastic. Uh, so I've just been doing that. This is getting a bunch of shit at Costco. So anyway, we're, we got our stuff. We're checking out.
Starting point is 00:25:16 Uh, I think we bought tinfoil as well. Just really, really paint the picture. Uh, and we're like, we get there. And this guy who looks like he'd probably be a member. of system of a down. You know what I mean? Okay. Like that type of like a surge type character.
Starting point is 00:25:33 Yeah. Yeah. Like kind of crazy hair. Just like a lot of energy. Just like, when you got near him, did he go, wake up? He honestly, he kind of did. Like not allowed. Okay.
Starting point is 00:25:43 All right. But he was like talking to this other self-checkout family. And they were buying stuff. And he's like, I'm telling you. I'm telling you, man. You don't want to listen? All right. And then he like turns back to us.
Starting point is 00:25:55 And he's like, this one's open. This one's up. Costco card, man. What do you got here? What do you got? Okay, this is, um, okay, yeah, you're a, you're a normal member. That's probably fine. We could look up what you, what you're doing. Okay, because I, dude, you'll listen. I've been telling these people, like, if you switch to the, to the other membership plane, you're going to make your money back on the new plan and get money back. All right? What's your, what's your thing here? You got, it's, it's five percent back to seven, I think it's seven percent. Hold on. Let me,
Starting point is 00:26:21 let me run the numbers here. I'm going to get, okay, yeah, if you got, you spent this year, You've spent $3.50. All right. 3.50. Wait, did he work there this guy? Yeah, he worked there. Okay, I was like, who is this man? No, because then he, like, brought us to this, like, Costco thing.
Starting point is 00:26:37 It was, like, nearby. He's like, you spent $3.50 here last year, or this year, all right? Last year you spent $450, all right? So you're on the right membership plan because, like, you're not going to pay for the thing you're doing, right? But if you get 5% back, okay, you up that to 7 or no, 8, 7. Yeah. But if you do that, you know, you're going to make your money back on the membership, which is what I'm trying to tell these people, but they're not listening, okay?
Starting point is 00:26:59 But you're on the right one. So like, but listen, if you start spending, right, because you're at 350, less year, you're at your 450. If you go higher, okay, then maybe you do go to the next plan. And that's what's going to be that 5% back, which is going to pay for the membership for to do the thing. And I was just like, wait, wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. So is he saying that if you spend more money than what you're, what you're spending now, then you should get a different plan? So I think what I figured out that he was trying to say.
Starting point is 00:27:25 was if you go to Costco so much that you're spending a lot of money, the money that you would get back on a higher plan, kind of like how credit cards you get like 5% back or whatever, right, would end up paying for the membership. So it wouldn't, like you would want to upgrade because it's essentially free with the amount of money you're spending. Gotcha. But you're not there all the time,
Starting point is 00:27:49 so it doesn't make sense is what he said. Exactly. But he said it, like he explained all this with like, so many extra words that didn't need to be said while like spouting random numbers and I was like,
Starting point is 00:28:00 I was like this man has to be coked up. Like it was, it was the fastest. He's really excited about Costco. It was the fastest I've heard someone talk in a while. Like he was just like, I'm not even like exaggerating
Starting point is 00:28:14 when he was like 5, 7, 6, 7% 6, 7, and like, he didn't say that. It's just like 8%. 5, wait, no. Yes, okay, yeah. And he was just just, like saying random shit. I was like, dude, what is this guy talking about?
Starting point is 00:28:30 It was insane. I would love to have been there for that because that guy sounds like a delight. And listen, he's worked there a lot. Was he the cashier? Was he the guy at the catch? Like, was he checking you out? He was, we were at the self-checkout, but he was the guy who like would say, you could go over here. Like, this one's open.
Starting point is 00:28:50 You know, the person like at the front of it. And then this man walked up and just started checking all of your information. about how much you buy. Yeah. Well, when we walked up there, he was trying to tell this to a different family and they weren't listening to him.
Starting point is 00:29:02 So I think he was already like set off a little bit by that where he's like, I'm trying to help him and they're not listening to me. You know what I mean? Like that was picking him off. I mean, yes.
Starting point is 00:29:15 Well, listen, it said he's worked there for like 20 years. So I mean, he's he knows what's up. He's ingrained in the Costco culture. Like, he knows what's up. Honestly, that guy probably knows. all the facts. He probably is like, yeah, no, I'm here to help. Yeah. And listen,
Starting point is 00:29:29 once I figured out what he was trying to say, I was like, he's not wrong. Like, it probably is worth moving up to the next membership plane. But he said it in the most insane, like, again, like a crazy person. Oh yeah, no, I'm aware. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So that, and then the funny part is as we were leaving, then there was just like this normal old lady that like checks the receipts when they do the little like mark on your receipt. And she was Like, coffee? Yeah, you're buying a lot of that. I can approve.
Starting point is 00:30:01 It's like the complete opposite of him. I love her for that. Yeah, though she was great. I can approve. So yeah, just the two complete opposite ends of the spectrum at Costco. And then, you know, the classic Costco parking lot of hope you don't get hit by a car. But I, dude, I can't. I can't. The one near me is like a hellscape. It gets worse every time I try to go. I just can't do it anymore. And I love me a good dollar 50 Costco hot dog. But like what a hellscape. Like the parking lot, it must be where people are learning to drive clearly because no one understands how to.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Yeah. It's, I mean, as we've said, like people are getting worse. There's more drivers and they're all worse to drive. Especially the Costco parking lot. Especially the Costco parking. I mean, that's where they all join up. That's where they all meet up. They'll talk about how bad they are driving. I hate it. I was like this.
Starting point is 00:31:08 These guys suck. But still with that said, inside of Costco, perfectly fine. The outside, hellscape. Yeah. Inside's pretty all right. I mean, they still have like some people that don't know how to drive trying to drive their carts. and they drive their carts into you and shit. They got those big ass carts.
Starting point is 00:31:26 That's true. But also that is unfortunately the case in all grocery stores. Yeah. Well, I think in Costco they have the mega cart. So it's kind of like they're driving those big SUVs. A lot of times I just go to the store like 30 minutes before it closes. I would except people are, that's when people are absolutely super psychotic. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:31:50 At least here, there's all these people. trying to cram into the store as it's closing. Oh, I don't have that. It must be an L.A. thing. I mean, it is definitely a thing, that's for sure. Not a fan. Yeah, that's, we don't have. Usually when I go at the end of the day, it's like,
Starting point is 00:32:11 there's some people there or like some people like running in to grab something real quick. But like it's nowhere near as crowd is. It would be if I was to go like right now, like 7 p.m. or 6 p.m. Well, what's crazy is the parking lot is also shared with an in-and-out burger. And so even when it's closed, the parking lot's full because it's people going to in-and-out. Ah, I see. That makes a lot more sense. That's actually, that was like, there used to be a target and then, well, there still is a target, but there used to be one.
Starting point is 00:32:40 It would just be target by itself. Then they put a raising canes next to it. There you go. That's target parking lots loaded. Yeah, it's like constantly filled with people. And everyone, so there's a line. So there's two lanes, right? There's, there's, you know, a leaving in a common lane. But the common lane is filled with people constantly trying to get into that, uh, in and out burger. Uh, and the line backups, you have to drive around them,
Starting point is 00:33:09 but in order to drive around them, it means you have to drive in the oncoming traffic lane. And then that's always filled. So it's just constant traffic jams. And then when you finally get into the parking lot area, then it's idiots who don't know how to drive or, people trying to make insane turns or U-turns in the lane, like just crazy stuff. It really, it's almost as bad. And I will go on record on this. Trader Joe's is the worst parking lot. Oh, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:33:36 It's terrible. Trader Joe's is like every, all the lanes are thin, all the parking spaces are thin, and no one knows how to drive any of it. Yeah, it's, it's terrible. Trader Joe, it's like they design Trader Joe's with the terrible parking lot already in mind. Yes. Oh, it's the worst. Yeah. Yeah, that's terrible.
Starting point is 00:33:57 I just don't understand it. What's crazy is there's a Trader Joe's next to the Culver Westfield Mall. And that parking lot is somehow even smaller. It's like on the back end of the mall. And so they built the parking lot there. But it is because it's attached to the mall parking lot, you can literally see the difference between mall parking spaces and Trader Joe parking spaces. Like it's a visual representation
Starting point is 00:34:22 And you can see How much more insane The Trader Joe's parking situation is Yeah It's And honestly it's just One of those things The earlier you go
Starting point is 00:34:34 It's gonna be even worse So like if it's already bad At like 8 or 9 p.m. at night Just imagine going there like Who in the afternoon on a Sunday I'm surprised you're not gonna Get run over I don't know
Starting point is 00:34:46 But the moral of that story was That Costco guy was insane But that good solid moral He is insane but correct Some of the most insane people are Let's see what else have I Oh you know what I started doing again Uh huh is I started playing through
Starting point is 00:35:09 Warcraft 3 campaign again Okay Because I played through Why? Well I played through like 12 years ago For YouTube videos and I was like, I kind of just want to play it again. Like, it's been pretty fun. I played through the, the tutorial Exodus of the Horde thing. I forgot that the Merlocks capture Senjin. Oh, yeah. There's a whole Merlock storyline. Oh, yes. And I was just like, dude, what happened to these Merlocks? They're just like in wild, like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, run around. And this one, there's like a Merlock leader that's like, I am the shadow god. Yes. I shall say, dude. I think that I, I, uh, I, uh, I, I, I, played through the remake version
Starting point is 00:35:53 and I heard that voice and I was like I forgot I forgot this is what they sounded like it's crazy they're like sacrificing him doing like crazy shit I'm like dude bring back these Merlocks this shit's wild so I did that then I played through the Arthus human campaign and now I'm on to the
Starting point is 00:36:13 undead campaign so I'll probably do that later you're doing the whole thing yeah I'll say my least favorite part is when they give you those missions that like fight off the undead for 20 minutes and I'm like oh my god all right so you just got to wait 20 minutes yeah it's like a classic RTS thing I never been a fan of it myself either yeah it almost feels like they're like can we just
Starting point is 00:36:35 you know cut down on the work we have to do like yeah just make them sit there for 30 minutes alright because then you can't speed it up it would be different if it's like 20 minutes but you could also speed it up by doing this be like oh okay cool but no they're like, nope. Yeah, I mean, I guess it's to teach you how to build out stuff and build defense, but it's never really needed. No. But then, I mean, I made like doing this because I also
Starting point is 00:37:03 wanted a refresher on the, the lore of the older games, because we're, we've at the point where obviously I've talked a lot about wow lore. So I was like, I kind of want to re-see or replay through like the wow lore and see it all again. That's like a refresher. And honestly, like some of the It is cool, but there are some cheesy-ass lines and things in the Warcraft 3 games that I didn't even realize playing through it even like 12 years ago. But, I mean, I think that's part of the charm. It's like Warcraft always had that kind of cartoony goofiness to it. Because I was also looking up, oh my God, what was it? I was looking up what people thought about Wrath of the Litch King and stuff because there were people.
Starting point is 00:37:50 being like, dude, people thought Arthus was a shitty villain. They're like, he's like a Scooby-Doo villain in Wrath of the Litch King. Or like, oh, he'll like, you do something and he pops up and he's like, oh, you bested me again, you meddling kids. And then he just like disappears. But somebody made a good point where it was like, we're kind of like invading his homeland where his kingdom is, right? And you're like, oh, like, we've made another step towards fighting Arthus.
Starting point is 00:38:17 Then you get to the castle and then you get to what you're like working your way. towards him when it feels like now in a lot of the game you're on defense and it's like everything's attacking you or like you're even if you go somewhere it's kind of because you're trying to defend the world still and it doesn't have that same type of
Starting point is 00:38:35 progression to it. Yeah that's interesting. I mean I guess that's what happens when you make threats bigger and crazier. Yeah. So I've had plenty of Warcraft lore conversations on these podcasts. You have. You definitely have.
Starting point is 00:38:50 But I want to mention that because that is something I've been doing lately. So it's been pretty fun to do. That's cool. Yeah. And then let's see. Anything else? Oh yeah, we watched Mac and Me. We did watch Mac and me.
Starting point is 00:39:03 And that was a movie, all right. That was a movie. Canada's greatest and Coca-Cola's as well. And McDonald's. And McDonald's. Dude, those aliens lived off Coca-Cola. I don't think I understood how crazy that movie was until we got to the full on dance party music number in a McDonald's
Starting point is 00:39:30 and from that point on it felt like a fever dream because a dance party takes place then aliens are dying but are saved by Coca-Cola then they become U.S. citizens Yep They drive A convertible at the end of the movie And it's like they're just
Starting point is 00:39:56 Welcome on Earth now Yeah, that is There are so many parts of that movie It just did not make sense Or it's like we don't think we need this We really don't need this in the movie I still don't understand Why there was an entire scene
Starting point is 00:40:13 Of the mom and son running Doing like a workout while the alien was being chased by dogs to some sort of song, but most of the time the alien was just in the tree, and it was like, you hide it from yourself, you hide it from yourself? Like,
Starting point is 00:40:29 what was happening in that movie? It was like 20 dogs chasing him. It was like all joined up. I don't understand. He got like one of those little tiny, you know, hot rod things, not a hot wheels,
Starting point is 00:40:42 whatever that is where kids would ride in it. He got one of those. I don't understand. how what that meant I don't like I just don't know dude yeah that is but I laughed the entire time
Starting point is 00:40:56 yeah it was great honestly I thought it was gonna be worse than what it was but I'm glad it was it was like a funny bad I was worried it was gonna be bad bad but it was funny bad it was hilarious terrible for me like the there's also the part we redecorates their house
Starting point is 00:41:15 to look like a forest desert even though... Why would he do that? For what purpose? Yeah, people are like Oh, it's because he's trying to make it like his home. His home was like Mars. They didn't even have trees and shit on his home.
Starting point is 00:41:27 What's even crazier is at one point he drills holes in their house. He cuts down their door. And then it's fixed. Somehow, like he learned carpentry and fixed their home. That was impressive. The fact that he can learn carpentry that fast
Starting point is 00:41:42 is pretty insane. I just, I don't. The most insane scene, though, we all have to agree, anyone who watched with us, is when they dress him up like a teddy bear, convince everyone he's a stuffed animal, and then he proceeds to dance, and they tell everyone it's just a new animatronic teddy bear thing with a new microchip in it. And his eyes are terrifying. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:07 It is the scary. Meanwhile, the alien hunter guys from the government spot him immediately. I don't know why no one else realizes this is clearly not. not okay. Yeah, it is. Even the Ronald McDonald in this movie is like, hey, nice toy. Ronald, you should know better. How does nobody, like, figure it?
Starting point is 00:42:28 Even the mom, she's like, what are you talking about? Didn't you say you got him a long time ago that teddy bear? How's he have new microchips? And he's like, uh, they just, they updated his microchips. And she's like, sure, makes sense. Yeah, technology these days. Kids have it all. The thing is moving and talking.
Starting point is 00:42:45 the entire time. At one point, at one point, he reaches across a table with his rubber band hand, steals a soda from someone, I think a Sprite, and he's like, this is shit. Sprite sucks
Starting point is 00:43:01 according to him. It's only Coke. Yeah, that's hate Sprite. It's only Coca-Cola. They saw his giant creepy hand that everyone's like, wow! I guess because there was a dance number going on, at the time or patience, but I don't understand why there was a dance number slash dance off
Starting point is 00:43:20 at the McDonald's. McDonald's in 1988 was apparently the place. Yeah, there was absolutely no reason to have a dance off there. At a birthday party. Yeah, and a birthday party. At this one McDonald's on the same day was a birthday party hosted by the Ronald McDonald, a dance off competition, and a like street performance art thing outside. All in one McDonald's all in one day.
Starting point is 00:43:50 Crazy. No one was there to actually eat McDonald's as far as I can tell. Yeah, I don't think anyone. Plus that one dude wearing a football uniform day andson was like 50 years old. He's the oldest guy on the team who's been held back a bunch. Don't worry about it. Yeah, it is. It was just everything was weird.
Starting point is 00:44:08 It didn't make sense. But it was a funny time. Yeah, if you want to get together with friends and have a few drinks, smacking me is the way to go. That movie. It's, it's, that was crazy. Yep. But, you know what else is crazy? Great, great, cool.
Starting point is 00:44:29 I get it. I'm going to try my heart. You're working, you're working hard out there. You don't have much time to cook. And you're tired. I get it.

Starting point is 00:46:48 They don't know what they're doing That guy just drove off the side of the road Into the water That person just drove from the water Under the side of the road That person just went over a building On their, one of those motor scooters They just did some flips and tricks
Starting point is 00:47:02 They landed But then there's another motor scooter over there It looks like they just drove off Into the water now there's a chapter getting them out of the water but you know they're going to have to turn back the gas prices you know they're going down but they're still up there and then it looks like there's also somebody who doesn't know how to drive
Starting point is 00:47:22 going the opposite way on the the old 408 so watch out for that one but yeah there's a lot of people out there so watch out back dude thanks Crendor yeah it sounds like it's a crazy day out there it's a crazy day doing tricks and flips on They're doing flips and tricks, but hey, what day isn't crazy at this point. That's true. That's big truth.
Starting point is 00:47:47 All right, let's go to weather then. Weather. Rovaniemie, Finland, situated at the Arctic Circle. It is mostly known for the Santa Claus Village, which brings a lot of tourists to the city. Rovenemi also has a square named after Lordy. who won the Eurovision Song Contest in 2006, since it is situated so far north, the sun doesn't set during the summer for a month
Starting point is 00:48:17 and doesn't rise during the winter. Wow. It, I mean, it is pretty north. Also, it has the name of like a Final Fantasy Summon. Rovan and me? Like, that's like, I don't even know how to say this. It's crazy. Rovan Niemie.
Starting point is 00:48:35 Currently in Rovan Niemie, it is. 44 degrees Fahrenheit and it feels like 38 degrees Fahrenheit with a 41% chance of rain it feels like 38, I already said that. Winds at 10 miles an hour east, northeast, humidity 94%, UV index zero, air quality good, dew point 42, pressure 30.01 inches,
Starting point is 00:48:59 visibility 7 miles, sunrise, 2.11 a.m. sunset, 1218 a.m. Yep, that is kind of weird, actually. Yeah, they only got like an hour and 50 minutes of no sun. That's pretty crazy. Yeah. That would drive me crazy. Although I'd like to see it, to be honest.
Starting point is 00:49:20 I don't know if I'd want to see it. But it is a full moon. You get that like one hour of the full moon up there. That's kind of neat. 10 day, we got. Monday, Monday, with rain. Tuesday, 59, a.m. clouds, p.m.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Wednesday, 66, partly cloudy. Thursday, 74, parley cloudy. Friday, 76, partly cloudy, Saturday, 77, parley cloudy. Sunday is 75, partly cloudy. And pretty much every day is mid-70s, partly cloudy. Ignoring the fact that McDonald's is one of the first things I found. Some of these restaurants and some locations, like, there's a lot of tours that appear to be related to the Northern Lights, which I think is really cool. I would probably be really, you know, there's a lot of.
Starting point is 00:50:09 darkness during the winter, I bet it'd be really cool to see Northern Light stuff, but also freezing there. But with that said, some of these restaurants, like there's one called Honky, I'm assuming that's what it is and not Hanky, H-A-N-K-I. It appears to be some sort of Asian fusion restaurant. It's not necessarily Korean because they have some Japanese things, but there's also Korean and stuff there. Like, I don't, I mean, it looks delicious.
Starting point is 00:50:42 It does. I see that. Yeah, they got like the hot pot. They got all the like sides and stuff. They got the. Yeah. But then there's also Neely restaurant, which looks like it is Game of Thrones.
Starting point is 00:50:55 The first images of the dining room, and it looks like you're in like 13th century. It's crazy looking. Is this restaurant? Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. It does. I love that.
Starting point is 00:51:05 Like, some of these places are great. And I know. they're going to serve you weird ass meats like you know meats of Americans wouldn't eat for sure you're eating reindeer and stuff there like like yes that's awesome yeah this looks like you're in a
Starting point is 00:51:20 like dothracky 10th that's what I see yeah that's what I'm saying it's crazy yeah but it's but it is fancy like they got a charcutory board but it's like a rustic shakoutherry board yeah they even have a restaurant Roca Street Bistro that place looks good honestly the place
Starting point is 00:51:38 that aren't Americanized fast food look incredible. I think that says a lot. Yeah, that's always the case. Also, I'm struggling to find all right, I finally found something below a 4.5, and
Starting point is 00:51:54 it's a 4.2. What is it? The 4.2 is Da Zhuang Hua Restaurant, so Chinese. Ah, yeah, I see it. There it is. Oh, Raventola A semma 56. The further north you go, the lower the score.
Starting point is 00:52:12 And I wonder why that is. Yep. Although no, Kyra Karovibar, that's a 4.6. I'm just impressed. Like, this isn't one of those things where it's like, oh, five people left to review. There's like somebody's have thousands. Yeah, they got a lot. It looks like there's a snowmobile thing nearby.
Starting point is 00:52:29 Some people probably snowmobile. Yeah. Arctic lifestyle safaris. Yeah. 4.8 looks fun as hell. You get on a snowmobile and you go out into the wilderness and get drunk. Yes. Yes. I don't know if this is real or not, but apparently there's a place here called Snowland. It is Lumiaoi.
Starting point is 00:52:52 What the Lumiaoi? And it's Snowland, a restaurant. And it looks like the whole thing is an ice building. What the hell? But then they also have outdoors like sit around a fire in fur kind of vibe too. Dude, yes, yes. I would be here so quickly. Yes, it is, it is ice.
Starting point is 00:53:13 Everyone's dressed up in their stuff. Stop it. That is. It's also a gnome themed. Noon theme. I love this. You know, yes, there are gnomes everywhere. I love it. You know what?
Starting point is 00:53:27 This place looks great. This place is great. This is a cool place. Aside from the fact that you have to either deal with constant daylight or constant darkness. True. True. Wow, that's like real. That's really far north. That's crazy. It is very far north. Yeah, that's way up there. Wow, that's like more north than Canada. Like, this is above Canada. Yes, this is Greenland levels of north. Yeah. We're definitely in the Arctic circle. We're above Iceland.
Starting point is 00:53:59 Yeah, that's, you're up there. But that's the weather. Oh, right. What's going on in sports? Sports. There's a lot of sports stuff happening right now. Apparently the NCAA baseball championship happened and St. Mary's defeated UCLA. So that's something.
Starting point is 00:54:25 I guess that actually is something because UCLA was number one and they are unranked. So that's pretty wild. We also got the NBA Finals, all set ready to go. It is the San Antonio Spurs taking on the New York Knicks, a rematch of the, like, 2000 NBA finals, something around there. I'm cheering for the Spurs because they got
Starting point is 00:54:48 Wemby. Go Spurs. That and I just don't like New York teams, honestly. I see how it is. Then we have the Hockey Stanley Cup also set. The Vegas Golden Knights taking on the Carolina. hurricane. So I'll be interesting.
Starting point is 00:55:09 See who wins there. Baseball. We got standings. We got the Tampa Bay Rays in first. The Cleveland Guardians in first. The Seattle Mariners in first. The Atlanta Braves in first. The Milwaukee Brewers in first. And the Los Angeles Dodgers, as you could expect, are in first.
Starting point is 00:55:29 That's sports. Okay. What is our fact of the day? we got a fact of the day did you know Chubbacca in Star Wars That's it
Starting point is 00:55:53 It's not where I thought we were going to go All right, yeah I did know about Chubaca in Star Wars, please Well, he is based off of George Lucas's dog an Alaskan Malamute named Indiana who also inspired Indiana Jones. Indiana Jones, it was the dog's name. Stop. All right, yeah, that checks out.
Starting point is 00:56:16 Of all the things I probably should have known as a nerd and didn't know, now I know. Yeah, that feels like as a Star Wars person, the type of thing you should know, like the same way, Lord of the Rings, it's like, did you know, Eric Gorn broke his foot when he kicked him? Yes, yes, except I've never been that guy.
Starting point is 00:56:29 I've never once stopped, like, guys, you know that he actually broke his foot there? Never once. And so I'm definitely not going to be like, were you aware that the dog, Indiana Jones is named after? It was actually George Lucas's dog. Never once. Now I might, to be honest. Yeah, now you might. He could maybe tell like Mathis. He probably doesn't know that. He probably doesn't. And if he did, he's probably forgotten it. So there you go. It was fact of the day.
Starting point is 00:56:58 All right. Like that. Who has come to us with tears in their eyes? Oh boy, we've got tears. We've got tears. We've got tears. We've got tears. Dump, dumtum, dumtum, dum. Dear illustrious sirs, with tears in my eyes, I ask you, what is a game film, musical artist, etc.
Starting point is 00:57:17 You didn't think you would like, but you ended up liking unironically. Ooh. Oh, oh, I think the most obvious one for me would probably have to be Robert Pattinson. Oh. I, for years, have been like Robert Pattinson is terrible. Like, those Twilight movies can kiss my whole ass. He's a bad actor, right? I am wrong.
Starting point is 00:57:44 Robert Pattinson's a fantastic actor. And in the stuff I've seen him in since Twilight, he has blown me away in every single thing he's been in. And so I think I've realized Twilight's just a shitty movie. And he's actually quite good. And I am team Patinson. To the end. He's a great actor. He got me. Damn he got you. He's a, he did the Batman too, right?
Starting point is 00:58:10 Yes, he was Batman. I honestly, I think when I saw The Lighthouse, I realized, like, what a good actor he was. Like, that movie is wild. Yeah, I remember you saying that. I haven't seen it. That's the one with, uh, what's his name too, right? Wilm Defoe? Oh, my God, yes. And Willem Defoe goes 110% like always. So, yeah. I just. I can't unsee the green goblin from him. Like, he really is the green goblin. He's a bit of a goblin himself, you know.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Yeah, kind of like I have a bit of a goblin too. You know, sometimes it's just what you are. You're just a bit of a goblin. I don't, yeah, I don't, I'm trying to think of other things that got me. I would probably say also Amazing Digital Circus is not a thing I thought I would like. And then I ended up loving. That's what I was going to say. That was my thing.
Starting point is 00:59:01 then I'll let you say it. All right, yeah, I was going to say that. Because listen, I'm not a big, like, I don't really like those types of shows where it's, like, cartoon-y for adults or, like, uh, it always gives me, like, adult swim types of vibes too or whatever. And like, I could, I, I don't mind them,
Starting point is 00:59:16 but, like, they're just not for me. So I was, I went into this being like, I don't know. I'll probably laugh a couple times and be like, you know, that was all right. But then it got me. I was like, dude, this is actually, this is actually good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:59:31 So yeah, I would definitely say that. I was trying to think of any other categories, though. There's definitely some music where, you know, like, more modern music where I'd be like, eh, I don't listen to that. And then I'll listen to a song and be like, that was really good. Like, that happens. But I don't know enough modern artist's names to be like, yes, that's the one. But yeah, sometimes I'll be like, oh, that's fun.
Starting point is 00:59:57 I like that. But also there's some movies where I'll be like, I don't know what to expect from this. I probably won't like this. Then I'll walk away. You know what? A great example of that is, Puss and Boots. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:10 The new Puss and Boots movie that came out on a couple years ago, I watched it on a plane not expecting much. And when that movie ended, I was like, holy shit, that was a good movie. It, like, got me in a way where I now will recommend it to others and be like, I know you're like, the Puss and Boots from Shrek. I'm like, yeah, but the new movie. They did an old movie, whatever. You don't have to watch that one.
Starting point is 01:00:34 The new movie is really good. And everyone's like, okay. And everyone's like, oh my God, that was good, dude. I'm like, I know. Dude, that was me with Paddington. I remember I saw Paddington. I was like, all right. I'll watch this on the plane.
Starting point is 01:00:47 And I was like, that was genuinely a good movie. Paddington, too, might be one of the top ten films of all time. I'm just going to say. Yeah. No, that was a great movie as well. I love the pad. Apparently they're making a new Paddington. It's happening.
Starting point is 01:01:03 I don't understand it. I don't know why the Patton movies are so good. I don't know either. It's just there's something about it. I wonder if it's because it's such a beloved thing. The Brits take it really seriously. Yeah, and they actually put funding and other stuff into it or something.
Starting point is 01:01:18 Yeah, they have time. Like they sit down. They really write out a plot and like try to make it make sense, you know? Yeah. I was also going to mention her video games, Umamusame is definitely one. Yeah. At first, I remember JP being like, the horse girl racing games hitting.
Starting point is 01:01:36 And I was just like, what the hell is this? Okay. And I was like, this is a game Sam's going to play. And he did. And then I watched them playing it. And I was like, all right, you know what? It's like a stat simulator. It's kind of like a sports game.
Starting point is 01:01:47 I'll try it. And then here I am, 648 hours invested later. Still playing. Not as much, but, you know, that's just anything. It ebbs and flows. Yeah. But I mean, it got you. a way that you weren't expecting and I think that's that's part of the fun exactly um that's a good question
Starting point is 01:02:07 so then we also have do do do do do do do dear illustrious sirs i come to you with tears in my eyes and sweat upon my cheeks because this building has no AC must be in england um if both you if both of you were roman emperors at the same time how would you at the same time that'd be a problem is what it would be. How would you rule? Would you work together to expand or improve the empire or conspire to destroy one another and claim absolute power? Here's the thing. How did
Starting point is 01:02:41 we come to power? I feel like that's part of it. If we were contested emperors and then the Roman Senate was like screw it, let both of them. Then there might be some problems between us because we both wanted it. But if we rose to power together
Starting point is 01:02:57 as like, we're buds and we're Imperers, right? Then I feel like one of us would tackle one thing and one else would tackle another thing. You know what I mean? Yeah. Because like, okay, how how exactly did the Roman empire work with all the emperor? Like was it like the thing where they all sit in the Senate and like debate or like who was like people? I mean, yeah, what would end up happening is before that it was a republic and they had the Senate. And then Julius Caesar came in and was like, F this Senate. I'm back, bitch. And then his son, Augustus, became the first emperor and was like, I'm going to kill all my
Starting point is 01:03:34 enemies and I'm going to run this place like I own it. And then from that point on, there were just emperors. I see. But there were senators. There were, you know, oligarchy level people. There was all sorts of, you know, upper crust stuff going on. But, you know, the emperor had the final say. But what about the same time?
Starting point is 01:03:55 Were there any emperors ruling at the same time? there was a point where the Roman Empire became so big that they had like a second capital and a split. So there was, you know, Constantinople was one part of the Roman Empire and then Rome was another part. So to be honest, I don't know exactly how it all worked, but I do know that as time went on, it was very complicated. So probably. So honestly, you'd have East Rome, I'd have West Rome. whatever makes you happy man I honestly
Starting point is 01:04:28 I think it would actually be better if one of us was like the guy who did the day-to-day Roman like you know the aqueducts and the city streets
Starting point is 01:04:42 and you know that kind of thing and the other guy was like I am expanding our empire and I will be in charge of the legions and you know like I feel like that would be you know one's like I'm here for the people and one's like I'm here for
Starting point is 01:04:55 military and then we focus separately and then we meet to be like, I need X, Y, and Z from you in order to do this thing. It's like, yes, so I need 80 troops in order to build this thing. It's like, okay, let's make this work. I feel like that would be the way to do it, but honestly, it probably would be too much of pain in the ass. Yeah, it probably would. I'm trying to think which, you would probably be the person of the people. I find with that. Yeah. Yeah, you could go out and talk to the people, meet with the people. Because that's you. You are the social lighthouse.
Starting point is 01:05:27 I go to the weird parties and eat their weird foods. Yeah. I literally last night watched this guy, one of those like history cooks, make a Roman cheesecake. Oh. And I was like, yo, I'd eat that. What was the difference between the modern one? I mean, it was literally the only sweetener was honey.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Oh, okay. And so it looked more, it looked less like cheesecake and more like a loaf of bread, but it was still cheesecake, if that makes any sense. Yeah, I see. That's kind of like, uh, it's like a coffee cake type of thing. Kind of, but again, it was cheesecake. It literally most of it was cheese. I think like ricotta or something he put in there. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:06:05 Oh yeah, it does say, uh, there was at least three sets of emperes that ruled together. Okay. Yeah, and they usually did what you just said. They shared responsibilities, handled vast borders, secure successions, sometimes even ruling as a quartet. There was Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Varis, Caracalla and Geta, and the Tetrarchy. What the hell? Emperor Diocletian established a system that formerly divided the empire among four rulers, two senior emperors, Augusti, and two junior emperors, Caesars.
Starting point is 01:06:47 That's crazy that they did that. But they literally have there was because the empire was so big. Diocletian was in the east, right? And then you had Max in the West. And then Constantius was in Britain and I guess Gall. And then in the Balkans they had Galerius. So I mean, I guess it just became too big. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:16 Is Constantinople the one where like nobody could. penetrate it until they got cannons. Because I remember, I think there's something about how nobody could like attack a certain city. I think it was that, but I'm not sure. And then once they got cannons, they were able to like blast through
Starting point is 01:07:34 and like take the city or something. But I don't remember. Honestly, I kind of want to learn about Rome. It's very fascinating. Yeah, Constantinople just becomes Istanbul. Go listen to the, they might be giant song.
Starting point is 01:07:50 For more information. I know that one. I know that one. I've heard it. There we go. That's the dear illustrious sirs. All right. What is our big news story of the day?

I would imagine hot, considering every time I've recorded with Dodger over the last two weeks, she's been a sweaty mess. Yeah. Listen, all I know is everyone in England's always like, it's never like this. But like 10 years ago when we were there, it was hot as shit.

But like over the last, I don't know, at least 10 years, it's gotten pretty hot there. maybe the you know what it might be the humidity too like the florida heat i think that might be doing it so even if it's like 80 it's just humid as shit that's got to be it i mean yeah they just don't have the infrastructure to deal with heat and everything's just getting hotter so yeah yeah so i know a lot of the people i listen to in australia have that same issue where they're like even if it gets when it gets cold even like 50s 60s their their infrastructures they're they're infrastructures like not designed for that.
Starting point is 01:09:20 So it's just like, it doesn't, you know, hold heat well. Or like, it's more designed to like get rid of the heat and everything.

Starting point is 01:12:15 maybe some regret, but not a booking number. I mean, they're not wrong. They're not wrong, but also, you know, what happens at Taco Bell is usually that. Let's be clear. That's true. Late at night at Taco Bell, it goes down. It gets crazy at Taco Bell at night.
