Okay, that's right. That's right. And you know what what's the robot? Oh? What's going on over here? Thank you so much I feel like I recognize these know these somewhere. Yeah, very familiar very familiar. Oh something just fell in it This is maple syrup. I know. Pure maple syrup. What is going on there? Welcome to Dignation. Also potentially hazardous to your health.

All right, moving on. Why do you have flies in your freaking house? I noticed this earlier. It's Southern California, and I have fruit. You put zombie and you put eerie in the title and I don't want to do it. Dignation.com Hello friends and family, welcome to Dignation, episode number 13. I'm Kevin Rose. And I'm Alex Albrecht.

Dignation currently covers some of the wackiest news and fun information all over the interwebs that we call the internet. Yes, and we curate it and bring it here and deliver it on a fine platter for you to enjoy. Yes. I have new glasses. I just, yeah, I was just gonna say. I can read things. So wait, so, can you see the camera?

I can see the camera now. It's not blurry. No, I can see the camera without them on. No, I know, but is it blurry when you put them on? No, why would it be blurry when I put them on? Because aren't they reading glasses? No, no, no, so when you look down lower, they turn into reading.

All right, let me try. And when you look up high, they get you on the high. Wow, you have a wide head. I do, I do, that's correct. Oh, I see. Technically, that is very correct. I see, I see. Oh, these are nice.

Isn't that good? They're very lovely, Kevin. Thank you. How have you been, my friend? I've been good, I've been traveling. I was in like 10 different countries in like five days. It was nuts. Well, yeah.

It wasn't quite that nuts, but I would say I went a lot. I think you literally left from the last taping and you were like, well, tomorrow I'm flying. Here, SF, SF, London, London, Paris, Paris, Stockholm, Stockholm, London, London, LA, LA, Santa Fe, Santa Fe, LA, and that was the last two weeks. Woo! Yeah! And all to do, research for Dignation.

Ah, that's right. Thank you, Kevin. I appreciate that. Oh, speaking of booze. Yes. I have been threatening to have some of this on the show, and I'm glad to, our buddy Will Harlan. I just saw him last week. Who is from a winemaking family

and is a winemaker himself, or I guess wine person. He makes multiple wines. Yeah, but he's not the winemaker. What would you call him? The... Winemaker. No, exactly, not the winemaker. Corey's the winemaker. It would exactly, not the winemaker. Cory's the winemaker.

It would be the wine proprietor. The wine proprietor, yes. Will will definitely tell us how to do this. But I've, ever since I was at the launch party, thankfully, because of you and meeting well through you. Oh, a long time ago. This one, Tony Hawk was there. Yeah.

And Ronnie Mullen. Dude, it was a crazy fucking event. It was so crazy. To meet M one was me. I have been a fan of mascot wine for many, many moons, and I get my allotment every year. And so I decided, I'm going to start drinking some of this stuff on the show. I first had this on The Random Show with Tim Ferriss, like, when it first came out. Oh, get out, Rick. Yeah, so we had a bottle back in the day when I used to live in SF, long time ago.

But good juice. Oh, Jesus. You are a lucky man good juice, you are a lucky man. 2009, you are lucky man. This is what happens when you know people who are awesome. And I have the- And make cool things. A paper plane. So I decided to go with a little cocktail here.

I love it. We've got some little tiki things here if we wanna go into the tiki realm later and do some cocktails. That sounds like a fun trip. We should think about that. So, couple things. Yes, I haven't been drinking either.

This is my first drink. You haven't been drinking? Well, took a few days off. Good for you. Was it because of Paris? I mean, I got back from the trip and I was like, you know, I need to like have a proper reset. You know, a little milk thistle.

Milk thistle? It helps your liver do shit. Oh, I broke a cork because of it. You need some milk thistle. I need milk thistle. Milk thistle? It helps your liver do shit. Oh god, I broke a cork. You need the milk thistle. I need milk thistle. What are you doing? You're already degrading Will's hard work.

I'm not degrading Will's work. I am empowering it to come out of its cork. Satan compels you. No, I mean, the Lord compels you. This is not how I open wine. Oh, I am fucking murdering this cor guys. You got it. You got it Okay, hold on first off. This is like a fucking hotel six motel six fucking corkscrew thing I didn't know they had corkscrews. Oh my god. What is happening guys?

All right, good entertainment as he's doing this. Oh, you had some no home. I have things I want to catch up on you first on first of all, I got okay there. Yeah, okay, okay, so first things first, we are, as a people, we are getting old. Yes, that's why I have glasses. So hey, cheers. Can I try a little sip of that? Of course you can, sir.

Look at that, I'll give you the royal sip, the first sip. This is good juice by the way. And they're not a sponsor, this is good juice. No, no, no, we love these guys. And by the way, and they're not a sponsor. This is good juice. No, we love these guys and by the way If you I mean these are not cheap bottles of wine But if you out there are interested in getting on the allotment list I've no idea if we can But we know a guy so feel free to email. Are you saying I'm just saying that and we'll see. No, we'll see

So you're saying email us and then we can get to- Well maybe we'll talk to Will see if we can get you on the Alarm List early. Or at least get you on the list. By the way, Mal, what's the email I keep forgetting? It's Dignation at dig.com. Dignation at dig.com, look at that. For us Dignation at dig.com.

Yeah, yeah. Sweet. I love that. So. Heather had an appendectomy. I don't even know what that is. Her appendix had to be removed. Holy shit, this is the first you're telling me this? Yes, I know.

I have a huge fear of this happening to me. It happened to Heather. Dude, every person in my family has had theirs out, not to make this about me. Except for me, except for me, I'm the only one. Anyways, what happened? So it was like the weirdest thing, because first off, I wouldn't say I have a fear

of this happening, but I know that it's going to happen. To you? To anybody that still has their appendix. No, that's not true. There's like 20 people in Saruina. How many people have had their appendix out? Raise of hands. Nobody?

Nobody? It's not gonna happen to me. Everybody has an appendix in this room? Oh my God. Okay, so this is what happened. You ready? You have an appendix, right? Of course I do.

But you're circumcised. Yes, but I don't know what that has to do with the appendix. Just double checking, just double checking. I know it was a little sign. This one's straight to my head. We're going full medical questions. We're just getting in there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you still have your Achilles? So, no, so what happened was, it literally was like Sunday night. Yeah. Heather has, you know, we go out to eat, fine. Fine, good dinner. We had a bad dinner. What was that?

Well, I don't wanna throw shade, but it was a bad restaurant near us. And we'd always wanted to go, cause we were like, I wonder if that's like a front for something, cause it looks like a regular restaurant. It's probably a front for something. And then we went in there and we literally walked in and we should have just turned around and walked back out

I mean it was just like Okay, bad dinner. Bad dinner. Might be stomach issues. You never know. So that's the thing. So that night 10 30 10 45 she's like, oh man, my stomach's all fucked up. And we're like, okay. She's like, I guess. Well, it's fucked up in like terms of like, Felt like gas pain.

Oh gas pain, okay. Felt like gas pain. Lower left, right? No, it's lower right. Oh it's lower right. If it actually is your appendix. Okay, that's good right. Oh, it's lower right. It's actually is your appendix Okay, that's good to know but it was sort of like up sort of here So we were like, I don't know anyway up all night didn't sleep

Just like horrible gas pain and then the rest of the day on Monday. She was like, I just feel like it's just bad Like bat called the doctor. He's like, well, there's a stomach flu going around But if it goes lower right just go in and then And then finally at like three, I go in, she's like on the bed curled up and has on her phone Googling wait times at ERs in Los Angeles. So I was like, what the fuck are we doing? Let's go, come on. And thankfully we went to Cedars.

You should go to Soul's, get a Soul's Health membership by the way. I don't know what that is, but tell me about it later. Okay. But we went to Cedars and it was great. Like, I mean it wasn't great, she had emergencyedars and it was great. I mean, it wasn't great. She had an emergency surgery, but it was laparoscopic, 20 minutes.

We were in and out. They were just like, it was 20 minutes. Wait, they let her out in 20 minutes? No, no, no, she was there until like 3.30 in the morning, but it was outpatient. She got it out. Had it burst? No, no.

Okay, so that was the big thing. Because they can tamp it down with antibiotics So this is interesting because a lot of people are doing that these days Yeah, but I will tell you everybody at the doctor's office or everybody in the ER was like It almost felt like they had to begrudgingly tell you hey You could also just take antibiotics right and but they're like it will happen again if you do that. And everybody else was like,

just take the fucking thing out. And they gave her antibiotics, but then once I was like, are you gonna send her home with antibiotics? And they were like, no, because we're taking all the bacteria out. It's all contained in the appendix. So anyway, so she's fine.

Everything's great, but it was just like, that's not how I thought I was gonna be spending my fucking Monday night. Oh, shit, dude. You didn't even put that in the story. It says home automation. That's... Well, no. So now, she's not turning lights on in my room anymore. So now I have to. That's so not true.

Why does it say home automation? I was going to talk about the home automation as well! I didn't know. Well, that's scary shit. I know. That's why I was like, I should leave with this. Literally, I wish you would have called me. I didn't know, well that's scary shit. I know, that's why I was like I should leave with this. Literally, I wish you would have called me. I could have got some help to you. Well first off, we had the best care.

Okay, good. The theater's was great, everything was perfect. If anything happens again, hit me up. I will, I'll be like. I got some good blocks on dial. I will do that. So, the home automation stuff. Yes.

So, back in the day, I think you might have even talked about it on the show. No. Prior to your house burning down, sorry. Oh, thank you. Peace be with you. You gave me one of your old ubiquity switches. Dude, and I'm so glad I gave you all that stuff.

I know, isn't that weird? Isn't that weird? So here's what happened, Alice came in my house and I had a bunch of this ubiquity stuff I wasn't using and also I had that thing in the garage, remember? The tool-less mini rack? Oh yeah, and the access we still got. And I was like, you know what, one day I might use this.

And I was like, you know what, Alex is gonna use this right away. Might as well give it to him. So I gave him, you know, I don't know, maybe like 500 bucks worth of equipment or whatever. And I was like, so grateful that when the house burned down that you actually got that stuff. Yeah, I was thinking about that.

I should have just given you the whole fucking house. I mean, well no, because then my house would have burnt down, Kevin, and that would have been really annoying. I'd have been like, here, take this house. Some gold bars. I mean, it was really funny. I was going through there, like I was on fucking,

like shopping street. Yeah, shopping cart, you know, like you push it under the thing. Because you kept looking at things, you were like, well fuck, take this. And I was like, what is that? And you were like, I don't know. You're like, just a gate. And I was like, fuck you then.

Give me a little cigarette rack and shit too. It was great. Yeah. And now I have a fucking full setup. Oh, that shit's cursed though. But well, no, not that stuff. That got out. That made it out.

You might still have the fire curse. But here's the thing. Have you played around at all with Home Assistant? I don't have a home anymore, Alex. I know, but had you before? Has this been up for a while? Yes, I have played around with Home Assistant. Dude, I can't tell you how excited.

I got a winning on the Raspberry Pi. So I bought the Home Assistant, actually, the nonprofit, well, I guess it's not, I don't know if it's a nonprofit, but the organization that oversees it because it's an open source project. Yeah, People for Home Assistants. They sell People for Home Assistants. I'm just a little tall.

I need some Home Assistants. I feel a little wacky there. That's great'm just a little... I need some Home Assistant. That's great. Welcome back. We're going to have to fly in your second paper airplane and make you go to Des Moines. I haven't drank in forever. This is why it's going through my head. So I bought the Home Assistant green.

Integrated it into the Ubiquiti system. And then I saw, it was like, oh my god, all of my hue lights are in there. I can do all this crazy crazy automation. Oh, you're going deep dude, bro. I physically Install like wired into my my gates. Yeah, I like yeah garage like gate gate. Yeah a Shelley that's a Wi-Fi Bluetooth Transmit receiver. I know I'm so I. So it's this little device that basically is,

you wire it in line with your clicker. Okay. And you power it through the stuff, and then you can set it up. So I can now remote control open and close my gate, which was just a dumb gate. Oh, that's amazing. Bro, I have people working on my fence,

and I told them when you go, they left, and they left the gate open because they don't know how to close it. Yeah, yeah. And I told them like, when you go, they left and they left the gate open because they don't know how to close it. And I literally, right before we started, I looked on my Ubiquiti camera, saw that the gate was open and that they had gone. And I opened up Home Assistant, clicked the thing, and fucking my gate slowly comes into camera, closed.

So cool, so cool. So excited. And it's such a nerdy techie thing to get into. I love that I got you into this. But it's so fun. Oh, I'm so deep. When Alex first came over to my house, I had Ubiquiti shit all over the place. And this is not an ad for Ubiquiti. So excited and it's such a nerdy techie thing. I love that I got you Came over to my house. I had ubiquity shit all over the place and this is not an ad for ubiquity They just make cool shit and it's not that expensive, which is also pretty awesome. Yeah And I was like dude look you do my setup

I got out dialed in blah blah and and then you were like hmm. I could tell Oh, yeah, we look like no when you like have a geeky friend and like you tell them about something new and they're like Hmm, I think I'm about to spend $1,000 on something. No, what you did was you showed me your Wi-Fi speeds. Oh yeah, because I have Wi-Fi 7. Look, I got the Wi-Fi speeds and I was like, what? That's your Wi-Fi speeds? Because I was getting two gigs over Wi-Fi or whatever because I had the new iPhone with the Wi-Fi and it was insane.

Anyway, it's addicting. Yeah, now I have a bunch of access points. I've got a bunch of cameras. I redid my whole cameras, all POE 4k cameras. You have to it's so fun Plus oh because you gave me the the smaller version of the backup Oh, yeah the camera so I bought the hard drives. Oh my god, it's so fun. It's awesome And then we're doing our kitchen and then we'll get into the show We're doing our kitchen and so when they had the walls open I was like, wait a minute They have the wall not only did I run ethernet

I have two in ceiling speakers that are gonna be powered by a unified amp Oh And two in wall speakers powered by unified amp Don't say that Why? Because I bought two unified amps I hadn't set up yet and they burned in the fire and I just now realize that Oh Yeah

Come over and listen how good they would have been Damn I have them sitting on the counter. Put it in the spreadsheet, get the money back. I already hit my max. Alright, so anyway. You can come over and I'll show you them. But yeah, no, we're going to get them installed in the back of the social. I'm so excited.

I'll show you them. It's so exciting. Alright, anyway, before we get into stories, thank you guys so much for reaching out. We've gotten a ton of great emails from you guys. We're trying to get through them all, but this is one that jumped out to Kevin. Lots of emails coming in, and dignation at dig.com.

For any of your questions, we had a really funny one that was someone was like, would you rather have your arms or your legs? And then like they kept going down the line of like, yeah, I know it was like odd, but I was like, well maybe that one, but I didn't pick out one. But would you rather have your arms or your legs? I don't know.

I probably, or I don't know, that's hard. I'd probably take one of each. I don't think you can do that in this situation. I'll probably take arms because you know what? You get those little legs that look cool in the Nike ads and shit. Oh, that's true.

Okay, so first email of the day, Hey Kevin and Alex, I've been a big Dignation fan and screensavers fan from back in the DetectTV days. Way back. Leo's crowd surf was awesome. Oh my god. And listen to you guys in high school on my real carbon throwback. Remember those real carbon MP3 players?

You remember when MP3 players were like a thing? It's like yeah, that's so fucking weird It's like the tape deck of like the our generation kids Anywho, that's what he said You Kevin must be not something Anywho Wanted to ask you guys about my our favorite friend anxiety Kevin has mentioned that he gets social anxiety and I was wondering about this considering

that he is a podcast host, like why do you do that if you have social anxiety? Or is there somehow a podcasting different? Why do you do that? Would love to know that differences between hosting and social situation anxiety, or does this explain the drinking while hosting? Okay, well let's keep going here.

I mean we didn't drink on the screensavers as much as I wanted to. Second question for Alex. I find it funny that Alex wants to be a pilot, but he gets crippling fear when he takes commercial flights at the point where he needs the X. First off, crippling fear is not how I feel. I would just prefer to go to sleep But you like you also don't like

Take no I was gonna say my anxiety is is mild claustrophobia. Yes, which is it pop when it oh man when it I Got him good in Japan. I got a good man. I was jumping the elevator and he's like The thing about claustrophobia. Yeah, is it? Because especially because I have a really mild form of it. It is so surprising. You do not have a mild form. No, I mean I definitely do. Did you go in that little phone booth over there?

100%. Really? Oh yeah, 100%. What if I locked the door? I mean I wouldn't love it. But I wouldn't love it even if I didn't have claustrophobia. Yeah, that's fair. I wouldn't be in prison.

That's fair. But it surprises you. And it's just this moment of like, ooh, the first time I ever had it happen to me was at King's Dominion, which is like our Six Flags, where I grew up in Virginia. And there was this line, and the line was in this like fake cave.

So like, you don't even think about it, it's just like this tunnel that then takes you to a place and it's like oh this is fun. And I remember I was with a group of friends and we were just going to the ride. What age were you? I was probably 15, maybe 14. All right.

Going to the ride and I came around the corner and there was just a person's back. And then I went like up and got in line and then I saw people filing in behind. And I just, I mean it was like instantaneous. It was just heart starts pounding. Just like, and I literally had to get, I had to go, excuse me, excuse me, excuse me,

and get out of line. And that was the first time I was like, what the fuck was that? And then that has happened periodically. Like I was getting an MRI and they put me in the fucking little tube from the 70s. I've got a buddy that needs to take a couple of volume to get into those tubes.

Me too, I do like Ativan or whatever it is. Anyway, he wants to finish it up by saying, sorry if this is very personal, but I was wondering how you guys deal with it, that type of thing. Kevin Spencer, AKA now by the name of 2-bit TW TW zero bit from dig. Oh, so people 25,000 people have registered their username on dig

Oh my god, and round page and paid for the ground breakers paid five dollars and all that money is going to charity We raised over a hundred thousand dollars for charity that money is going to charity. We raised over $100,000 for charity. Yeah, charity, suck it. I mean, it would have been nice to have that capital for dig, but outside of that, all jokes aside, it is awesome because we wanted to truly, you know, kind of just show you that this is not

about a money grab for usernames, like let it go to something good. So figuring out those charities. But anyway, thank you 2Bit. So anxiety. Yeah, like when does it show itself mostly for me? Oh gosh, man, I had a huge breakthrough where it got way easier just in the last five days Because I had I've had all these flights, you know, oh, yeah, and and never liked flying. I never liked flying and I

Went and did a little mini three day meditation sit retreat with Henry Shookman, who's my meditation teacher at Mountain Cloud Zen Center. And I had this, well I don't want to go into it, but anyway, I had this thing where I just like, all of a sudden, this kind of, I could kind of like step out a little bit from the Kevin that is feeling these things and and and when you oftentimes

when you can just sit with that feeling and you can feel it in your chest and you can say okay I'm not gonna react I'm just gonna sit with it hmm you can just recognize it as this up swelling of feeling and then more often than not, it kind of just dissipates once you can accept it for what it is. So it's hard to explain, but I will say this is the only plug I will give. The Wei app that you can get on the app store from Henry,

fantastic introduction slash hardcore meditation app, meaning that if you wanna to take this seriously, I think meditation is a great, and there's many great apps out there, Waking Up, a bunch of them, but The Way by Henry Chikwin, fantastic, it's helped me a ton with this stuff. That said, yeah, alcohol's great.

I mean, it's fantastic. You know, it does help a ton. It does help a ton. When you're anxious, drink. I mean, I can't tell you how many people drink. I mean, I know a handful of people myself that are just like, have such a fear of flying that they just drink.

Oh, party's a flying thing, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's so interesting. Yeah, it's really interesting that you went into this line of, although to be fair, like. I don't mind podcasting. interesting. Yeah it's really interesting that you went into this line of work. To be fair like. I don't mind podcasting. Podcasting is easy. It's a camera. There's a camera there's nobody else there. It's a camera. Hi everybody else. But it's just a camera. Yeah yeah yeah yeah. So that makes it a lot easier. Live shows must be a little more nerve-racking. Tiny but not much. Yeah yeah.

Because it's like we're just turning on this. We're like this when the cameras are off. We actually are actually a lot like this. When the cameras are off. That's the whole point. We're probably 10% more dialed up when the cameras are on. I mean. Like I would have never said like,

hey you're circumcised. Like if the cameras weren't on. You totally would have. I might have. I might have. Here's the difference. If you and I were together by ourselves. Over having a drink.

In a room with nobody else, we'd be a little less tongue in cheek. Well if we were drinking we'd be the same. I mean that's true, yeah. I just thought that you might. Okay nevermind, we don't have any good advice for you. Meditate and drink are two of the best suggestions for anxiety.

We need to work meditation first. How about we do that? Exactly. Let's do that. Exactly. All right, well let's get into the show. We're actually very, very excited because we have a new sponsor.

Yes. Viore is, I'm stoked to have him as a sponsor and this is, I love that you're doing the little showcase here. I'm indicating. Vanna Whiting. The one thing that I do love is we get a lot of sponsor inbound

and we have the luxury of saying no to a bunch of crap. And when there's something that we love that we can get behind, it's like, you and I are both in this boat where we would never take a sponsor that we wouldn't like. Your is like, obviously does like great clothes that are not that crazy expensive, and they're very, very comfortable shirts.

This is a shirt that has three buttons. You probably can't see it on the This is a shirt that has three buttons. You probably can't see it on the camera there, but there's three buttons there. Very professional. Little dressing it up a little bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A little fancier, a little more than my normal black t-shirt.

But they fit well. They're working a little bit. I actually got my creatine water that I need to drink. Anyway. Creatine water? Well, I put a little creatine in there because it's my post-workout thing. I fucked my legs today.

It's so bad. Did you? Oh, God. We did Nordic hamstring curls. Were you wearing a Viori pants when you went to workout? Because they make nice workout pants. I'm not even joking. They do.

I'm totally buying those. You should. All right. So anyway, let's finish this off in saying that first of all, thank you, Viori, for sponsoring Dignation.

They make a bunch of great workout stuff. T-shirts, I got some of their socks. I'm gonna go and just get a whole new workout stuff because I have a bunch of old shirts and old jeans shorts. And they're just falling apart on me. You were asking me a few weeks ago what my favorite black t-shirts were. Because you were like, oh I want to get a black t-shirt. Yeah, feel this material, it's nice.

They're not asking us to do this, he's just feeling it. Oh yeah, it's great. All right. I'm feeling it because I'm feeling it. All right, first story of the day, let's get into it. Yeah, mama! Nintendo Switch, the Nintendo Switch 2 pre-orders will start on April 24th. I'm so excited.

And the price is still $449.99. Oh! This is, they decided to keep the price where it was at, given all the madness with the tariff stuff. Oh, I see what you mean by still I mean good for them right because like I know a lot of people because they were Did they take a beat or somebody took a beat and we're like, we're not gonna sell them yet It might have actually been Nintendo to be like just give us a second

But the fact that they then came back and went we're just gonna go ahead and still charge what we're gonna charge Yeah, really fucking cool. It is cool, but I will say, one, I think there's two things to talk about here. One, I'm super excited, I can't wait, this is gonna be fun, I can't wait for this new product. It's just like, obviously if you look at the specs, it's like an order of magnitude better than the last Switch. Which by the way, was one of the best video game devices

in the history of video games. It's so much fun. I mean it was like, and it, yeah. Traveled well, it was all that good stuff. Anyway, really excited about that. But I will say, this is where, gosh, I think we should, we don't like to get political, but let's talk about, for a quick second,

the tariffs and the impact they're having. So, in the last five days, I've had two calls with two CEOs that do over several hundred million dollars in revenue for their products that largely are built in China. I mean, I think most products are largely built in China nowadays. These are like digital products. And one of them said to me point blank, I'm going to have to raise my prices on my product by 20%. And that turns my product into, from a must have to a maybe.

So there are people whose brands are being forced over the edge into a luxury item. Exactly. And then when that happens, what happens is, like this person in particular, obviously I will not name names, but they were talking about, you know, we're gonna have to do massive layoffs.

And this is like a household name. If I said it on camera right now, you'd be like, holy shit. And I was like, damn, this is really crazy. Then I was out traveling around when I did this epic world tour, I was talking to somebody else around some other things, gosh, I can't say a lot, but one of the things that I found out, I'll just give an example.

So it's no surprise that Foxconn, the big Chinese manufacturer, they make iPhones and all that stuff, right? Apparently, if you want to work with Foxconn and you go out to China and you want to do manufacturing, they'll be like, hey, let me just take you on a tour and show you how we do our stuff. Give you a little dog and pony show. So they won't let you see most of, almost anything that Apple does.

Because that's like the proprietary shit. But apparently, and this is speculation, rumor, slash take it for what it is, but I believe it to be true, the one thing they will allow you to see is how the keyboards are made. How the fucking. The Apple keyboards? The Apple keyboards, yeah.

Oh, that's interesting. And so they like, just like, they'll be like, this is the one thing where we think it's okay for you to see how they're made. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like if you do a knockoff Apple keyboard, people are still buying the Apple keyboard. Right, exactly.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So they walk into this room. It's like a room that is probably like, well, it's hard to explain how many square foot the size of this room is, but it's not a very big room. And it has four people in there, and it's all tooling automated machines. And they have the capacity with four people

to do 100,000 keyboards a day. No. Yes, with four people, dude. What? It's all automated. So, this idea, but this idea that we are going to bring back American jobs. Oh yeah. In, don't get me wrong, there's a lot of industries

where that could be the case. Sure, sure, sure. But in tech, in high capacity, high volume technology devices, it's not about humans being like, let me put the R key where the R key belongs. That's not the shit anymore. No. That probably hasn't been the shit for 15 years. Exactly. I was just like, oh damn, this is crazy. Wow. I mean, that would be four jobs. Four jobs.

But still, four jobs for 100,000 keyboards. But then you got to get people that know how to do the tooling and all that stuff, which we don't have those people here. It's just, oh, God, man, I'm really scared for the economy over the next six months. I really am. I'm a little. I mean, it's going to be interesting.

It's going to be interesting. It's a bumpy, it's a spicy meatballa. And I'm hoping that... Are you divesting from anything? I wouldn't even know how to do that. I'm divesting my soul into looking at my bank account, I think is probably what it is. You're holding your bitcoins, though. For sure. You're not divesting the bitcoin.

That would be a fool's errand. You're holding your bitcoins, Dal. For sure. You're not divesting the bitcoin. Okay, okay, okay. That would be a fool's errand. Yeah, no, I'm not like taking money out and putting it into gold bullion or anything. You know what I mean? I've literally done that, but yeah. I mean, I get that. I feel like I don't have a big enough pile to diversify.

I mean. I have more sort of like a small molehill that's just doing what it's doing. Yeah, but your molehill's nice. I love it. It mean, I have more sort of like a small molehill that's just doing what it's doing. Yeah, but your molehill is nice. I love it. It's all I need. Yeah, I think you got me a new kitchen. Well, also, you were very early on the Bitcoin front. You were mining shit when I wasn't even Oh, I definitely I made a fucking milk carton Bitcoin mining thing where it was just like literally like a milk carton with a motherboard and six graphics cards

and I was mining like Starfleet coin. Oh shit. Oh, yeah. I Work out. I don't know somebody else might know I would because what I was doing was I was is so crazy back in the day and I wish cuz I lost like At this point a good amount of Bitcoin because it was like three Bitcoin Yeah, but at the time it was like 800 bucks and I was like, whatever But I lost it in one of the like it wasn't like Mount Gox, but it was sort of like Well, it's probably like three million dollars. It's not three million dollars. Otherwise, I would not even be telling you the story

But I think it was a couple hundred thousand Really, but but no I would do this thing where I would like mine starfleet coin then sell starfleet coin on this like Chinese Crypto exchange for something that I could then sell for litecoin or Bitcoin, right? Remember litecoin? Oh, yeah I'm rather it was still this thing. It's big. I mean so big anyway Good times good time. I need another refresher my cocktail. I need to grab my charger. Do all that stuff. I'll grab my, hold on, let me just grab my.

Yeah, but also while we are here, if you are watching this on YouTube, please. Like and follow. Like and subscribe. If you are listening to the audio form on some kind of magical audio device listening thing like Spotify or Apple Podcasts or anything like that, please give us a review. That would help us a lot.

And five star reviews are for champs. Yes, if it's a four star, don't want it. Chumps. Don't want it. Chumps. Actually, I don't want to say that because then they'll be like, fuck you guys, four stars. Don't four star.

We were just joking. You're all five stars. By the way, I want that, we gotta have a merch store. Don't four stars, you're champs. We have so many t-shirt ideas. We need to make that happen. Beautiful cocktails. We got boxes of shirts, we gotta set up a store. We gotta set up a store.

Look at Mal's Hawaiian t-shirt on today. Oh Looks all tiki like look at him. You deserve it one of these tiki drinks. I know yeah All right, by the way, that wallpaper is gonna be in my bathroom. Here we go. Is it really something very similar we're doing we're doing the The Beverly Hills Hotel. Ooh has this like classic time out. Yeah, it's classic wallpaper. That's like banana leaves That's our powder amazing super excited. Okay next story how a secret gambling

syndicate won 95 million dollars in the Texas lottery by buying every number combination I Fucking love this because I don't know about you, but I have always, always been thinking like, there's got to be a way. There's got to fucking, Powerball is a billion and a half dollars. Like there has to be a way where mathematically makes sense to just make it happen. And this group made it happen. And so essentially, the article is sort of like, hey, it is legal, what they did was legal.

They did not break any rules or regulations. But it's like, is it ethical? And my answer is hell, fucking yeah, man, they figured it out. So it was essentially what they realized was you could sign up on the Texas lottery, you could have online on the Texas lottery you could have online lottery stores basically so you can make your own lottery stores what

they did was they set up four online lottery stores for themselves they got this old warehouse and then they went to some of these like failing like places that had lotto machines and they bought a bunch of their lotto machines they filled it all up and what they did was they had ato machines, and they bought a bunch of their lotto machines. They filled it all up, and what they did was they had a bunch of people, and they printed out QR codes. So each QR code was a single number combination of a ticket. And they spent four days,

they could process 100 tickets a minute, or maybe a second. Probably a second, a minute, something very, very short. It sounds like a second. Yeah, 100 tickets every second for four days, and they were able to purchase 99.3% of all the number combinations, and one of them won the Lotto jackpot

without anybody else winning, and one of them won the Lotto jackpot without anybody else winning, so they spent $25.8 million to buy these tickets to win $95 million. They walked away with after tax, after one-time payment, $57 million, so they netted $20 million in four days. And how did they compensate the people that were going and doing this? payment, $57 million, so they netted $20 million in four days. How did they compensate the people that were going and doing this?

You mean the people that were working for that? The QR code. Didn't they have people that were doing QR codes or was this all automated? They had people doing the QR codes, but I'm sure they probably gave them... I mean, fuck, you're making $20 million, give them $10,000 for four days of work? I'd fucking bleep QR codes 24 seven for 10 grand for four days. You know what I mean?

And the crazy thing is, so it was this, it was basically this London based bookmaker who essentially went through and looked and found this thing. Because, so did you ever see, there's a movie where this teacher in the Midwest basically discovered that there was some time where this local lotto thing did this thing

where it was like the power number was like, they only had four numbers or something. There was a period of time in this one thing where you could mathematically need to just buy like 15,000 tickets and you would win enough to cover the cost of the 15,000 tickets. And so he got his whole like small town to invest and he started doing this thing.

They made a movie with Bryan Cranston. It was actually really, really funny. But it's one of those things where I'm always like, there's gotta be a fucking way. Like I just love that problem of like, it's mad. Did you see what the Texas governor said? Oh yeah, they hated it. They called it the biggest theft from the people of Texas

in the history of Texas. I mean. How is this a theft? So this is the thing, that's just pure hyperbole. This is a theft? What they basically were saying was, by guaranteeing you won. Yes.

Not guaranteeing. won. Yes. Not gonna win. 99.2%. Well, I mean by mostly guaranteeing you won, Mr. Semantics. Yes. The glasses are making you very semantic having today. Yes. By almost guaranteeing that you win, the governor was basically like you're basically taking out

the ability for a random person who just buys their ticket to win. Yeah, well guess what? The random person still has the same amount of odds. And it wasn't gonna win anyway, because clearly they didn't win. Nobody else won. I guess it depends on how many tickets are sold, right? Because they do have a cutoff.

So they bought more tickets so the odds of the random person went down. Is that right? No, because the odds of the random person is the odds of the random person in a vacuum. Also right? No, because the odds of the random person is the odds of the random person in a vacuum. Also, it's like how many tickets were sold in total. But I don't think that changes the odds that your numbers hit.

So if there's two numbers. First off, you need to pull your glasses down when you're being smart. If there is two numbers and one's a winner, okay? Okay, string of numbers wins okay another so odds are 50% if that you're randomly gonna win well no because there's a billion other numbers it could I know but what I'm saying is like they bought all these tickets so they were decreasing the odds that any one person

could win oh we need a statistician we got to get some statisticians up in the small that's my question do they not do the lottery until they sold a certain a statistician. I was about to say you're gonna get some statisticians. We gotta get some statisticians up in the small. That's my question. Cosine and sigmas. Do they not do the lottery until they've sold a certain number of tickets? No, they always do the lottery. Okay, so.

If nobody bought tickets, they'd still do the lottery. But I think the See, because they bought so many tickets. The amount you win is lower. I don't know, we have to ask Chet GBT. Let's see what it takes to the lottery. I love that. Let's not ask a doctor of statisticians.

Honestly, the new ChatTPT showed that it actually can outperform most people in math. Like all these PhDs. It can outmaneuver the maneuvers. It's crazy. Oh my god, I love it. Anyway, this story warms my sneaky heart. Heather says, she's always like, I love how you come up with these schemes.

And I was like, there are only schemes if they're negative. But you can have positive schemes. 100%. And this, for me, feels like a positive scheme because nobody got hurt. Nobody got hurt. And by the way, Texas took their fucking money. They took the amount.

Anyway, I love everybody. All right. Thank you. All right. Next sponsor, Kevin Rose. You're up. Am I up? I like to be up.

Oh no, I'm up. Yeah. I am up. All right, double sponsor. Double sponsors. This episode is brought to you, there it is. There it is. All right, actually it's so funny we should have this sponsor.

I'm not even joking. I have some element in here right now. And this is not paid placement, god damn it. I feel like I'm like, like, like. You're such a shill. No, I have element in creating in here. Anyway, so element is our sponsor, which I am stoked to have because it is my favorite post-workout drink.

It keeps you more hydrated. And it is, you just mentioned how you used to get Charlie Horses when you would not have enough. Oh, 100%. Magnesium, is it that? Potassium. Potassium potassium. Yeah

So anyway element is a zero sugar electrolyte drink mix Not only does it have 1,000 milligrams of electrolytes, but it has 200 milligrams of potassium areas they have partnered with the team USA USA Olympic weightlifting and Lots of Olympic athletes and Navy SEALs teams also use element. I am a big sauna person so for me element is huge because post sauna I'm like drenched with sweat. I know I've lost a lot of electrolytes and everything else so that's primarily why and when I use element but we want to share with you an exclusive offer at drinkelement.com slash dig that's drinklmnt.com slash dig. You get your free element sample pack with any purchase.

And I like the sample pack because there's so many different flavors. I'd say out of like the seven different flavors or whatever there are, I like like six out of the seven, there's one, there's one I don't like. We can say this, but like anybody, the nice thing about the sample Pack is you get to try it and see which ones you like.

And then you're getting- Orange salt is one of my faves. I actually like orange salt. It tastes like the vitamin C that you have when you were a kid. And the grapefruit is good too. Cool, I'll buy that. So, they also have a sparkling drink as well. So, it's called Element Sparkling.

I got a scroll. There we go. Okay This is great because this is a horse.

I'm sorry, your story is, here's a horse. Have you seen this yet? I have. Okay, first of all, look at this beauty. I love everything about this. A Kawasaki rideable robot horse, everyone. The future is now. This is literally like everything that little boy Alex wanted. It's half Voltron line.

Oh yes. It's half... You couldn't get these together. When Penny would get on the robot, Penny would get on the little thing and have her robot turned into a little scooter. Yes of course! I know! So is Kawasaki making this?

It's a concept video as you can tell. But I mean, they're saying this is a... It's something that they plan on... I mean look, at the end of the's something that they plan on I mean look 50 but like 25th it's fucking far but Boston Dynamics making all these like weird robo. Yeah. Yeah, we want to ride the horse you want to ride. Yes 100% we want to ride them like that's that's the point of

these robots Not all robots You definitely want to ride most robots. I don't want to ride the humanoid robots. I mean, I think you do. That would just be weird. I think you do. Like on the back of one of the humanoid robots.

Oh my god. And then more like a horse robot. Like a freaking, like a, like a, a, a, a gelfling from a dark crystal. Just like on the back of this humanoid running. That's not what I wanna do. I mean, I'd buy a giant robot to walk me around like Iron Giant.

If this had a, it's gonna have a hydrogen engine. That's fine. Would you buy one of these though? 100%. Really? A million percent. Why does it look like it has missiles on it's side there? That's the hydrogen engine.

And also you can shoot it at people if you don't like them. Yeah, I mean seriously. It looks kind of badass though. It doesn't look kind of badass. It looks fucking awesome. It does look awesome. Like anybody that's like, first off, like, oh, I have an ATV. It's like, OK, well I have a fucking quadpedal.

Is that a word? Quadpedal fucking. Quadpidal. Quadpidal fucking. And by the way, put a little AI voice in there and be like, come on now, play fetch with it while you're waiting on a campfire. Yeah, it's gonna do all the things.

It'll pick up your campfire wood and shit and bring it back for you. I mean, I love that. It probably will have a small mouth type feature. It better have a small mouth type feature. I mean, and then you just like a little broke back mountain, you're like alone with your quad-pedal device in the mountain.

You're like, I'm so glad I got that small mouth feature. Jesus Christ. OK. I mean, you did say small mouth feature. That's right. That's right. And you know what? What's the use of a robot?

Oh. Hello. What's going on over here? Cocktail's here. Cocktail. Thank you so much. I feel like I recognize these people from somewhere. Yeah, very familiar.

Very familiar. Oh, something just fell in it. This is maple syrup. This is pure maple syrup. What is going on there? We've got... Are you drinking this, or pearls? Oh, fuck, that's good.

This is Canadian maple syrup whiskey. Canadian maple syrup whiskey? You know what? That's fucking good. That's spiking my glucose. That is like, that is some serious hangover juice. If you were. Clear your schedule.

First off, this would make the best French toast. Why do I recognize that? Oh my God, have you poured that on French toast in the morning? That's what I'm saying, man. I have ideas. I'm an ideas man. It's a good scheme. I'm making pancakes.

Guys! In the house! It has been so, so long. Thank you guys so much for coming to us. Cheers to you guys. And coming out. Feels like yesterday. It does feel like yesterday.

Somebody booted up the Wayback Machine and... I mean... I got stuck in it. You know, the Wayback Machine actually, you know, it crashed the other day. Way back machine? Did you hear about that? No. It actually went down it was down for like five days But we were glad to have you here amazing. Thank you for flying out. Thank you for coming out By the way, I have a feeling these two crashed the way back machine Once we realized they were coming out here because that's just crazy. B-I-S-O-T-F-O-T-I. Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time.

Long time. I did that line already with a Captain, Dr. Captain. What? A few episodes ago, so it's kind of... You did that line? I thought I could come back, I thought I said I'd come back on the show and I could do that.

Yeah. I haven't heard that name in a long time. Like that's what, the hole with the robe? We can come up with another line. I mean, it's kind of a bit late now because this scene is played out. What do you mean move on? I just, this is it.

I'm beginning, we're beginning. I just came in. You guys, honestly, were some of the earliest fun collaborator people that we got to meet in this world. The first wave of the sort of 2005, 2006. At the dawn of time. At the dawn of time. I tell, like, nobody wants to hear about it. I tell you, like, you tell people that today and they won't believe it.

There were nothing worth watching on the YouTube except for cats. Most of them was half dead. They didn't even have a full screen button on YouTube when it started. Wait a minute, they didn't have a thumbs up, did they? I feel like Dig was the embedded thumbs up. We created the thumbs up.

You fucking created the thumbs up. Lord. Excuse me. Actually, now that you think about it. Yeah. And then they were like, forget you, we got our own thumbs up you like we're the thumbs up Yeah, it was funny. There's a this is a true story Mark Zuckerberg came over to dig He wasn't wouldn't sit in a chair for some reason sat on the ground. He was a young kid He was a good guy and was asking me about voting like like actually like liking things

We and then they made the like button like three or four months later, which is crazy. It's hard to believe, like that is, like you almost can't have social media without that. And everybody lives and dies by it now. How many did I get? Oh, I got some, oh my god. Hearts up. Hearts up, oh my god.

So in some sense, we've destroyed the world. And then you're gonna come back like a Phoenix from the ashes. By the way, speaking of, how did the concept of TKPART TV come to you guys? Well, I'd like to ask. I mean, that was like one of the original sort of, would you call it sketch comedy? Yeah, I mean, yeah, sort of, yeah, I did sketch comedy and then I was like a filmmaker as well and she's an actor and honestly honestly Kevin Gamble Johnny Johnny was not here

Yeah, he's rest in peace up in Canada Yeah He was his idea to make a show and it was pod Let's make a podcast and I read and I kind of looked at I'm like it was just audio at the time I'm like, I don't know how to make audio entertainment Yeah, I got a I got a pull faces and he, and then all of a sudden he's like, no, no, now it's video. You can have video.

And he showed me Rocket Boom. And I was like, oh, damn, we could have our own show. And then so the, like the tone of it, the tone of it, the most important thing was that it was like, these are friends trying to put on a show and you pretend you buy in and you write in and you also act like this is a show. Yeah, you know, like like like a local community access show inspired by like a show that I used to watch as a kid coming out of Bellingham, which was a homemade,

homemade a show running on a local TV network broadcasting over the border. But you guys who owned independent comic book shops would run, bought the airtime and where there would normally be infomercials, they bought the airtime and they ran old episodes of Doctor Who and they shot their own ads on Super VHS. Oh wow. And I looked at that as a kid, like around my age now, no, let me go back, around 13.

She needs to know. They're onto me. Around 12 or 13 And it was like, Oh, I was suddenly like, this is actually like, I get this within reach making something. And that thing, like, you know, a lot of things, I feel like what we do kind of start as a kid. Yeah. And then, and then you, and then you grow up and you're like, technology has shifted. It's no longer a fantasy. We could do, we could do this. And then so I was like, Lara come on over, I got a doctor's outfit. It did.

And that was appealing to you Lara, was it? Well, you know what? The ridiculousness of everything is always what is appealing to me. So it's like I hang out with like little kids cause they're ridiculous. And like grownups willing to be ridiculous and like dress up and put a tiki bars.

Tiki? I see tiki lala was a stretch for you acting wise. So there we got to know what was out of all the episodes that you guys did because you guys did a ton together. Okay, but you can't make me pick one favorite. Okay, give me a favorite moment. What was like a favorite moment, a favorite like? I loved being Snake Lady.

Oh, she's just like agreeing to Snake Lady again. That's just bad. Well, she was just like, we're good to be like bad. And then Ty was in there wrestling this giant, like he was pretending that this snake was beating him up and it was hilarious. You guys had strings attached to the snake, right? Cause I kind of go remember a snake flying by.

Yeah. It's crazy. Giant snake on a little fishing line. That was funny and fun. And the dinghy, we got to be in a dinghy and that was ridiculous because we're just like like in this tiny apartment flopping all over this Blow it up dinghy pretending we're in a flood and I loved it when you were there because you're so fun. Yeah So there's lots of good ones. Did you chicken Eastman? Yeah. So there was lots of good ones.

Did chickenies smit? But that's what I didn't, it was just ridiculous. Like I would just be crying, laughing every night. Did you guys improv a lot of this? Like when you had your lines and stuff, or like was that pre, was it just you kind of making it up on the fly? We were like, well, we'll do this today.

We'll do this like beat and this beat. And then we were just going for it. Yeah. How much drinking was involved? Yeah. Oh none? Oh none. All fake. All fake. Except for they were really strong fake drinks.

A little spice rum to take your mind off of everything. Thank you doctor. Are you actually drinking all that? Liar. Hey ha ha ha! Hey. We have the rest of the episode to get through. And this is only the opening scene. Giddy-yiddy-yiddy!

In the Christmas episode, I think I grabbed her drink because I just wanted one as a bit. And I took a sip, and it's in the episode, and I'm like, this is just straight vodka. And I'm like, because she didn't want to get bloated with mixer. And then she's like, look at the camera, and she's like, no.

I'm going to get impressed. I poured it all over my face. It's very rare, but it is common. A version of windows, it's full of holes and viruses, it's terrible. Yes, reminds me of my last wife Let me say that I so the character of dog tiki was kind of like a bit of a me You know wishing this was the guy that I wish I was that calm that that like That smooth and and I'm not but I can act it and when you when you talk about talk about now we're getting on

Being honest about having anxiety huge. I have huge anxiety Well, then you can take it um But I like it that you know what you guys are interesting in that the things that you say on camera are like, I like what guys, there's cameras don't say that. And you're just like, you're just like, I have to say the thing. And I fucking love it. It is. It makes you guys so amazing that you say the things that. People be like, don't ever say that out loud.

I've never thought about that, but I definitely agree with you. I definitely regretted saying certain things out loud. I'm totally like, say it out loud! Yeah, I mean, the thing is, at the end of the day, one of the things with early dignation is like we wanted it to feel truly like it was unscripted just hanging out with us. If the cameras were off, we'd still be doing this, right? Which is probably pretty damn accurate.

And if you can imagine, actually, while you guys were hanging out with us off camera, it's just we step it up a notch. It's like, yeah, we just had costumes when we were shooting. Honestly, some of the most, like some of my fondest memories were like when we connected finally, I mean, you know, because at the end of the day, it was at the time, it was very sort of like, we're doing this thing in a of like we're doing this thing in a vacuum You're doing this thing in a vacuum a couple other people were doing this exact sort of thing in a vacuum and Being able to sort of come together and find each other was a really cool and powerful thing because it was like There wasn't a social media world like you couldn't just like reach out and DM somebody on Instagram and be like hello

What you're doing? Let's collaborate. I mean, I don't even know how we got. Yeah, you probably emailed me. There was a time when I read every Tiki mail. Yeah. There was a time, and even Kevin Gamble, Johnny Johnny, would say, at one point he realized I was reading every single piece of Tiki mail that came in. Yeah. And then it became like, he's like,

dude, no wonder the episodes take forever to edit. Cause I was editing them as well. And by the way, as an editor, I never recommend unscripted drunk improv and then just dumping that on an editor going like, make us look funny. But anyways, actually that was a lot of fun. But then I came to realize, okay, I can't anymore.

But there was a guilt that I started to feel like they're taking the time to actually like, you know, there was no link you could click. It was nothing. So it was like they would look at the end credits and then go and go to the effort of manually typing in an email address and trying to come up with something like asking about the snakes. Yeah. Where were we? somebody bring us back on top I was saying how did we even connect back? Yeah One thing I think is really important to say is that Kevin we wish you were here. Oh god

Oh, yeah, he is next time. Do you understand now what love is straight, but has not come through Syntax therapy. And I've lost like tears in rain. Time to die. Fuck me. Oh. Hey, well, who needs a cocktail, huh? ["The Last Post"] It was one of those things where we connected with Jeff

and we're like, okay, let's make this happen. And then it was like, okay, who else can we bring? And then there's like Lala or Kevin. And that one for me was Sorry Kevin, but I hope to see you next time And we have we appreciate that Let me jump in here to say that we did an AMA with those two shows are hosted it and we got a Kevin gamble in there amazing breakers only so

Everyone in there. Fantastic. And when we, Kevin, by the way, you're welcome here anytime to be a guest and sit in our chair. And if you ever make it out to LA, please come hang with us. We'd be glad to welcome you with open arms. Bring the Fez. I met him in elementary school.

Wow. Wow. How often do you guys all communicate? Because I know like when Alex and I broke apart, I went to SF and all that stuff, we talked like every six months or whatever. Was there going to be a text or something? Yeah.

It wasn't enough, to be honest. I agree. It was sad. Yeah. I blame you for that. But we should have chatted. I know. But we both had lives that went on.

It was like one of these things where when you don't talk to someone, you still know that you love and care about them. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And this is like but oh we used to have time to connect or whatever. Is it a guy thing? Because like some of the people I say yeah, these are some of my best friends in the world. But when you last talked to him, I don't know if he's still alive to be honest. Exactly. And yes, it is a guy thing.

Yeah, it is a guy thing. No, it's not. Oh, it's a human thing. No, I'm real bad at that. You're bad at it? And I am feminine. That you are. And I'm so, I'm, just there's so other things

and I'm organizing play dates and there's, ugh. Yeah, I'm too tired. Kids really jack everything up. Oh, I ended up having a kid and he's awesome. Yes. And you're a kid. That's all I'm gonna say. 13, right?

Yeah, he's 13 and he's like, I can't dox him, but... I can't dox him! Well, we have that, we need to decide to dox him, we can remove this from there. Yeah, cheers, and wife, who I met making the show. Yeah, she's good. I mean, we started, she wasn't a fan, because that would probably not be great. But I mean, I hope she's a fan of what I did. But no, she was, you know, we kind of had eyes for each other. And then I found out she was a graphic designer

and I'm like, I kind of need a logo for this show. And she looked at it and she was like, do you ever? Because she saw what I had been doing with typography. Anyways, and so now, and then we made a child. Well, now you got AI, so now you can just be like, do any design you want. It's kind of like, I'm chatting with you a little bit. Are just saying that the AI is replacing my wife?

Oh, I mean it does for some people never never yeah, there are there are you stay? Get it to talk dirty to you. I've discovered. Oh my god. We jailbroken AI one time God I thought they didn't do it no no no you So there was like one time a friend sent me a link that was a jailbroken AI and it got so dirty. I had to be like, I'm gonna like remove that. Amazing. No, no, you understand. Like it was saying shit where I'm just like,

whoa, like I didn't even wanna go there. Like I was like, I wanted you at like a four and it was like a 15. Maybe it was like you were your soul was like, let's go 15. No, no, but it was 15 where I was like, I wanted to do it like a four. Maybe it like, And it was like a 15. Your soul was like, let's go 15. No, but it was 15 where I was like, the limit is 10, that maybe 12. Really? But anyway, we're at 15.

I mean. Are you talking age? What? No, I'm talking about, Oh, okay, I missed something. Jesus, okay. And we'll cut that. Okay, and yes. So, first off, Jeff.

Yeah. I've heard that you have sort of taken a left in your career and has now become a published author. Yeah, that's true. I have. We shouldn't use this as a time to plug because we haven't we haven't done any plugs Or anything obviously. Oh, yeah Okay, yeah, I I Was pretty yeah, it's pretty lucky to have I mean, I guess I discovered my voice as a writer

so you might know that I'm a I like to try and be funny and and and also be a Filmmaker behind the camera, but yeah, yes. Yeah,, and you're okay is it okay if I actually plug the book the I mean Should someone happy people should know that the book is at least ten people will buy it so we are very excited That's really funny. Yeah, go for it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Thanks. Thanks for the dig. Yeah, anyway, so Well, okay, if you're gonna be that way about it. I did write a book I'm not sure how we're gonna continue to be good chums after this but it is I haven't seen the book yet I'm it's called

Potentially hazardous to your health an expose of indignation That's why you've been hanging around so often why you didn't notice me you guys are so blind Well, we're I've been here the whole time behind the fucking plan. I love that the binding has copy on it as well. I'm like, you can rotate. That's beautiful. I saved money by marrying a graphic design. So expose. What do we? Well, that's French. So you wouldn't really know.

I don't know what that means, but I was really curious. What do you mean? Exping, if you will? Let's just say I had a backstage pass. Literally. Literally. I mean, you might, I think we gotta read that book, Kevin, because there's probably some shit in there that we should not have.

You did a lot of bad shit. I was an agent. I did a lot of bad shit. Jeff, I asked AI about your, what you were currently up to, and one of the things that popped up, and I was sort of taken aback, is that you've also been the author of some fan fiction.

Oh no, no, I don't wanna talk about that. Like Star Trek kinda stuff? I don't wanna talk about that. Is it Star Trek fan fiction? No, it's not, it's not. I mean, this is a great fan fiction. I mean, now's the time to get it out. Like, let's get it out there.

I don't, I'm uncomfortable, I don't want to I mean we're comfortable as you said on Camera saying things that we shouldn't be saying right so I say it has zombie and it has beer in the title I don't want to do it I love that you're quoted on the cover. I'm gonna cut on cover the missy. Yeah, I'm zooming on that Yeah, I can't zoom but it, I don't want to do it, Kevin Rose, the bottom. If we launched a zombie beer collectively, we could make a killing.

Like, zombie beer would actually crush it, actually. Zombie beer would crush it. And we can have the only beer that has an accompanying novella of fan fiction. By the way, do you, maybe have, could you give us a little sample of what gloriousness is in? I mean, let me just,

let me go to a random page here and see what we've got here. Okay, just pick up a random page. In the back room, fumbling in the dark, nibbling, stroking, fondling, kissing, twisting, tweezing, squeezing. It was backstage at the live Dignation. She caught her breath.

Which one are you? She asked. Kevin? Is this Kevin? Or Alex? I'm Kevin, replied Jeff. You gotta keep going. This is like, I'm like captivated. Oh my god. First off, you better write that book if it's not already written because I, I'm Kevin Kevin replied Jeff.

For a second I was like, did he actually have a camera? I was like, come on. You know what? I can see why you're a best seller. Thank you. It's very clear. Thank you. I mean, it rolls off the tongue. That's what...

Shh. rolls off the tongue. That's what, shh. One, actually, one serious question I want to pose out there to you and Tiki Lala is, would you guys consider, for old time's sake, doing, I'm not gonna say shots, I thought that immediately, but like, would you consider doing another reunion show with the three of you? Doing one more episode. I think that would be a hell of a lot of fun If it's a Christmas special

Christmas specials We can get you sponsors. We've got a good ad sales team. Oh so think think dollars hitting the. You know how we really fucked up all this, no joke. We all stopped podcasting and then Joe Rogan was like, I'm gonna podcast and then made billions of dollars and we all stopped podcasting. How did he do it? But would you consider doing a little holiday special?

I would consider it. Lara, holiday special? Yes. Oh, there we go. Again. Oh my God. First off, if that does happen, you and I are flying wherever they go to shoot it. You may have to.

And we're going to cameo. In the snowy snowy. Snowy snowy. We didn't even talk about you guys cameos. Did we? Or maybe we didn't. Oh god, I was so nervous. It was so- I'm not an actor!

Point Dexter? Yes sir. Compress the internet video tiki bar into the computer Linux. Impossible. Why? It's possible. Linux runs off of two primary ports. The USB port and the Leola port.

I'm not so sure this whole internet's gonna catch on after all. The internet is run by a series of Linux machines, run by the Tiki god, Mbuntu. I've heard of this bastard. Have you met him? No, only in the chatroom. Is he... He's much younger and he's a female. Yes.

The problem is we need to add DRM to all Tiki Bar episodes. I couldn't agree more, but I will anyways. I like the way you operate, Poindexter. One might say I dig it. Yes. You see? One might say I dig it. I've heard that.

Do it, yes. And so like I was like sitting there and you guys had like I didn't want to go back and look at what I said. I literally remember being in LA behind the Tiki Bar with Kevin. I don't even remember what the bit was for the first time that Kevin and I were on the show. I thought it was for your show. I don't remember now.

Someone's going to have to go, someone leave a comment and then the thing below and tell us what you mean. We had, we might've had you guys, did we? You were on your show. You were on their show. You were on our show. Yeah, but that was, but, but didn't we come on? I have pictures of you guys behind Tiki Bar.

We said Big Nation on the set. Dignation on the Tiki Bar fest. Yes. Yes. Oh. That was the first time I met you guys. Yes. I remember the first time we met. That we all met.

I have great pictures of that. Yeah. Yeah. I still have those on my phone and it's the best experience of my life. I should find them. Yeah. And I remember, and you had, I mean,

you had the best intro where you're just like, you know a lot of Tiki Bar was just like, oh we're playing on this like trope. Yeah, yeah. Like nobody would ever introduce it, like having a character sitting in a chair, probably. And then bastard illegitimate son of the father of the internet, yeah.

And then, or BSOFTI or something for short. And you just like roll, and I thought you were a savant because you were like, you got all the initials off the top of your head? Yeah, widescreen. Oh, it was great we were just talking about it the first time I went on and actually guessed at his character. Yeah. It was the first episode where they went from four by three like the old iPad iPod video. Square to the wide 16 by 9. And we had people asking a lot about that. It's like, how'd you do it?

Because she walks out, she grabs the letterboxing and pulls it off. How did we do it? Still mystery. I don't know if you guys know why. Chad GPT will know. Chad GPT will know. Chad GPT will know. Whoa, here's how they probably did it.

Buster Pete. Honestly, that was some of the most fun that I've had guesting on somebody else's project. Yeah. And you coming in as basically Obi-Wan and. Oh God, down the stairs. Down the stairs and doing that bit and that was some good acting.

You got acting chops. He's got acting chops. Yeah, he does. I know. I know. My mic is there. You got acting chops. I don't have acting chops.

I have like Kevin chops and geek chops. Yup, lamb chops. Meditation chops and I do like lamb chops. And that's kind of all I got. That's kind of all I got. That's it, that's the only chops. Only chops. Pork chops are good.

Pork chops are good. I'm not gonna go down memory lane of the episodes but I'm like, I just have for a moment to be like, I feel like I'm gonna go along. Are we okay with it? From the producer? Ah, fucking, let's start the episode. So you came down, you made it to I'm the producer. Ah, fuck it, let's start the episode.

So you came down, you made it to the set, the SST key at one point, which was in the open ocean, not in any legal specific place. And that OB, I just remember that OB one bit. I love your exit. I just like it. Honestly, your acting chops kill it. I remember people going, well, wow, Kevin really can.

Not Kevin, sorry. I love you. I get us going well, wow, Kevin really can't not Kevin. Sorry Again, I get us mixed up. I haven't even had a biggie drinks. So Alex Okay, where was it like exits, okay, so no it was exit yeah So he's doing an exit and remember this is kind of geek humor that we're making up at the time is like Playing on the trope of the convention that ghosts walk through walls Yeah, there's no point is anybody say, you should be able to walk through a wall. You give like some advice to her, like, remember, oh, I will be with you. Always. I was sad that you...

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you're by, and then you do the walk, and then just walk right into the wall. Oh, guess I can't do that. And I was like, oh, oh, that's physical comedy. That's some good Jack Tripper, but honest. And then he goes up the stairs, and I love it, he does that awkward wide shot as you go up the stairs,

and of course you fucking trip on the way out again. And it's just like undermining the mystique of like, oh, oh, that was good. We gotta roll this stuff in as we're talking about it. Yeah, this is awesome. I honestly have not seen it in so long. I haven't either, we should watch. It is the best should it is the best

it is the best and you were actually there you came over and Helped finish the we had just finished the green screen in my garage For totally right totally red show. I loved that show. I guess everybody's busy now, but everybody's been Oh my god, Jeff turn into a rock star. He's a rock star big time movie director. Dan is like making all the Predator movies. Oh, which by the way, totally forgot. Now's the perfect time. Dan's Predator animated movie on Hulu just dropped the first trailer.

I am voices in it. You are voices. What do you mean by voices in it. You are voices. Oh, dang! Yeah. What do you mean by voices in? I am voices in it. When the movie is out, I will tell you guys the story of my experience. Wait, when you say voices in,

do you mean like, the one the credits play, you're like, oh, the credits are not blinding? Like, what? No, I wasn't, I'm not for the sight impaired. I didn't do the sight impaired reading of it. Predator is fucking somebody up right now. That guy just got stabbed. Oh god, that's, just give me a second. I'll explain it in a second.

Bunch of visual description. Point acting? No, yeah, well so yes. That's my favorite. I'm just giving you a little tease because it is a great story of how I am voices in that movie. Very exciting. It's very fun.

But if you haven't seen it, it's Predator Killers of Killers. I think it's called Killers of Killers. I believe so. It's coming out this summer on Hulu. Love it. But yeah, no. But I remember you coming over.

I have a picture of you and me. Oh dude, you're already a ghost. And there's like. Beer. Sorry, sorry, and what? In my garage when we finally finished the green screen. I don't know why you happened to come by that day. I hope I got invited.

You did. I mean, you must have. I was trying to, I don't know. Otherwise I was just like, I think that's Jeff. Why is he walking by my house? I'm like, he's gonna be a big director. I gotta suck up. Here's my eight by 10. No. But what, like, he's going to be a big director. I got to suck up. Here's my 8 by 10.

No. But what, what, what? You're already a ghost. So just to circle back. I'm a ghost. The ADHD-ness of my being. You're already a ghost. Yes.

And so like, ghost, like, there's a Christmas element in that already. Oh, I would be so excited to bring back the bastard son of the illegitimate father of the internet. It would be the most amazing thing ever. And your father was the MCP. Oh, I forgot he was the MCP. He was the master control board. And the thing about, I'm trying to think about who did it.

We outsourced our special effects to, I wanna say fans, I like to say viewers or whatever. Like who are it? Because they're more passive. And that was really economical. I'd be like, I'm editing editing and be like I don't know how to make those tubes because the wall blew out and we just need because some senator had recently described the internet as tubes. Oh that was Al Gore yeah. No a series of tubes. No that was an Al Gore that was that was another guy was like what you had there's an internet with none of the tubes and my wife put an internet in

the tubes and yeah that thing and he was like the head of technology or something in the senate anyways so he not that guy but when the wall blew out that stevens ted stevens let's get political everyone loves that but anyways he's still in the internet somewhere so when the internet blew up or you were having this this bomb drink and you couldn't handle it you took one to the team yeah yeah yeah oh you derezzed that was it I derezzed yes yes the wall like the hole in the wall I was looking at it and I was like okay I just don't I don't I don't have time to learn how to do that and I'll be like I think it was probably Twitter yeah I'd be like does anybody do an effect for us yeah and then like a lot of people would raise their hand and then they would just send

stuff in and that's so cool There was no signing off on... Like rights to anything. I know. They're going to come back and see you now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Some guy did that and I was irritated. He didn't see me but some guy was like, he was a professional voice guy. I shouldn't even say it.

And he was like, hey, I did this voice and this is great. We'll use that voice. And he's like, well, looks like you guys are getting big now. Can I have money for that? And I'm like, what the fuck are you talking about? It's not retro, it don't work like that. I get the money. No.

Oh my god. Well, guys, thank you so much for coming down. This was such a great capper on this episode. Great to see you again, sir. Me? I'm always here. I know, but episode. Great to see you again, sir. Me? Yeah. I'm always here. I know, but it's great to see you again.

That stuff is sweet. That stuff is good. No, it's not good. It's good, but it's not good. Like, sweet and alcohol is equals No equals you hate you never get hangovers. He never gets hangovers. I mean I guess hangovers. Oh, yes, sir Thank you. Yeah yours. I drink smart drink sport water so anyways, but as

The only advice that the doctor taking would give right here Yeah, and there's no substitute for it, is water, water, water, while you're drinking and after you drink. The only problem is, then you can't sleep because you have to get up all night. Right. So it's a balance.

That's kind of every night for me, I'm just that guy. Have you tried those Z-Biotics or whatever? Yes. Yes? They work really well, I need to buy some of those. Dude, there's these little tiny bottles that you drink, and they're like a little probiotic, and they break down the shit, and you're good.

Oh, do that! Yeah, they do. Yeah! Oh, we can cover the sperm story! No, we'll do it next week. Can we cover the sperm story? Oh, we gotta cover everything in that. Yeah.

Too much, too much. Too much, too much. I'll just do it real quick. Okay. There's gonna be a sperm race in Los Angeles. And it is going to be happening here. Maybe not tonight. Maybe not tonight.

Shut the fuck up. So here's the deal. How do you sperm race? I will tell you. It's going to be April 25th. What do you win? Pregnancy. It is a team from USC and a team from UCLA.

Can we compete? I mean, if somebody out there is part of this sperm race. I feel like I eat enough veggies but I don't have some strong shit. No, I don't think I'm. You wouldn't be good. I don't think I'm good. You wouldn't be good.

Which is actually great in my life, but I don't think my guys would just be like that. My guys would be like, fuck it, let's go. Anyway, so what they're doing. They got creatine in them and shit, like ready to go. They'd come out and they just be like, that's the fuck is happening. Anyway, so what they're doing.

These guys are serious. Justin could join me. Yeah. That's weird, that's our CEO. This is what they're racing. So what they're doing is they're putting the sperm from the USC team and the UCLA team on a microplane

and then there's a line and they're going to project a microscopic camera of the sperm trying to see which one of the sperm's team can make it past the line first. I gotta say, Sperm Olympics, I should get the domain. Please do it before it comes out. Are they selling sponsors? I will be in.

Can we sponsor, can we sell sponsorship on the sperm? We should spell. Get the gel mothick on the side of the sperm. It's like that drawing your name on a grain of rice. Oh look, Tiki Lola just got a drink. Oh wow. How nice is Justin as the dig CEO. If you wondered, by the way, if you were watching
