Starting point is 00:00:00 Dragon's Dogma 2, the highly anticipated successor to the cult classic Dragon's Dogma, is out now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S and X, and Steam. Dragon's Dogma 2 is a third-person action RPG boasting a richly detailed and deeply explorable fantasy world created using Capcom's RE Engine's immersive physics, groundbreaking character AI systems, and cutting-edge graphics. Dive into the vast and dynamic world where The Arisen is called upon to fulfill a forgotten destiny across the nations of Vermont, the Kingdom of Humanity, and Batal, the nation of Beastrin.
Starting point is 00:00:36 Dragon's Dogma 2 revolves entirely around choice. Your choice, that is. From the sword and shield-wielding fighter to fighter to the illusion conjuring trickster, there are over 10 unique vocations to choose from that all require experience to unlock new skills. And character customization is out of this world, literally. Oh, and did I mention the combat is really in-depth? It isn't just hacking at a giant's ankle for half an hour while your dodge roll attacks. You can engage enemies from a distance, climb up large foes, stab them in This is a Rooster Teeth production. Hello and welcome to another episode of the F*** Face Podcast. My name is Jeff Ramsey.
Starting point is 00:01:47 With me as always, Andrew Pantin, Gavin Free, Nick, and Eric, who is anticipating anger. This is episode 144. It sounds like Eric is pre-med. He's pre-med. Yeah, he's pre-med. I'm just going- It's like pre-med, but with an A. I'm just going in to our office day knowing what office day has been previously and what it was last time and i am preparing myself i'm bracing and getting ready for what it's going to be why don't you just do it do
Starting point is 00:02:16 it live just do it on the night why would you want to get riled up do what live what are you talking get mad so you're saying don't brace for it at all just let it hit you well what's better being mad most of the time in preparation i'm not mad right now i'm thinking about what i have to prepare for that is the most mad i've heard somebody declare this sucks but i agree with you i agree i think you know if you it brace for being mad it takes less out of you when you get there because you're prepared for it i'm imagining eric leaving his house with a smile and getting behind the wheel it just gets closer to the office just starts frowning now i want to give gavin top marks for
Starting point is 00:02:56 immediately deflecting this episode onto you eric because i think this is the highest stakes any episode has ever been for gavin because if you have back-to-back weird guy performances, I think you're just a weird guy. Like we talked about being late, how long it would take to get out of being in the I'm a late guy house. Being in a weird guy house, I think it would take equally long to get out of. So deflecting immediately to somebody else. Great move. I think you bringing it up really isn't helping there. It's really like some pressure.
Starting point is 00:03:26 Well, I'm just stating the pressure that's there. I'm letting you know. Yeah. But you have... You shot on my slate. What do you mean? The slate was set... I mean, the slate was so set from the last one. I think you're the weird guy. No, I just flubbed. That's not a weird
Starting point is 00:03:42 thing. People flub all the time. I wouldn't even say that was the best flub I've ever seen. How about this? I was thinking about our initials the other day, and the five of us, if you take the first letter from each of our first names, it spells
Starting point is 00:03:59 Anne Egg. Wait. You were thinking about... Andrew. Andrew, it's not you. Andrew. Andrew, Nick, Eric, Jeff, and Jeff. Jeff might be the weird guy in this one.
Starting point is 00:04:17 I was sitting around thinking about our initials. Jeff, thank you so much. You're welcome. That's what I'm here for. When you said an egg and you visualized an egg, did you see anything specific, like a logo for it? Did anything pop in your mind? Anyone?
Starting point is 00:04:37 Because I had something pop in mind. How did this not come up in our Dumpty face? I don't know. That's what I agree with. We're the boys of Dumpty, literally, or an egg. And we that's what i agree with the boys of dump tea literally are an egg and we're an egg yeah the boys are an egg maybe this is my weird thing i see an egg is like the gap logo but it's an an egg like that but it says an egg that's just what i saw that's what i envisioned that's not what i see if an was a store, it would look like the Gap logo in my head.
Starting point is 00:05:06 That was my vision. I was curious if you have any brand affiliation. So where did you get, first of all, how did you get to our initials being set that way? Were you just trying to figure out different possibilities? Or how did that happen? I think about that stuff all the time. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:21 That's like when I, well, the way I came to it is I was thinking about uh trying to come up with a name for the podcast you and i recorded recently andrew the the this is a lot of teasing for a thing that might not be heard by anybody it's not a big it's just like we were recording like a sports fandom thing it was like a test i don't know if we'll release it or not i'm sure we'll release it but we we need to put at least uh one full episode in uh before we'll we'll determine if it's releasable or not yeah but i was just trying to come up with a name and that's like the first
Starting point is 00:05:54 thing i always do like i always love initials that like like jeff and and and gus and uh gavin uh were always 3g i always thought that was kind of funny. Like coming up with like clever. So it's like whenever I'm trying to think of a name for something, one of the things I look at is like, what do our initials spell? Like, well, how could I make something out of that? Clever. And so I was doing that and I thought I've never considered that for face. What letters do I have?
Starting point is 00:06:19 And then I came up with an egg. Hmm. You think about names a lot and you've named stuff achievement hunter and face. That's well, listen, I think about names a lot. So I never come up teeth. I had nothing to do with listen, listen, I had nothing to do with the name rooster teeth. That's Bernie Burns. I had nothing to do with the name Anma.
Starting point is 00:06:44 That's Gustavo Sorolla. I wanted to call it Good Morning Gus, which is a great podcast name. And I stand by F*** Face as a phenomenal podcast name. And I use Achievement Hunter as an example of why I need to think more about naming shit. So I don't name anything else Achievement Hunter again.
Starting point is 00:07:00 So yes, I put a lot of thought in the naming stuff because I don't want to be saddled with a dipshit name like Achievement Hunter for the rest of my life. I put a lot of thought in the naming stuff because I don't want to be saddled with a dipshit name like Achievement Hunter for the rest of my life. I got a name for you for an alternate instead of Good Morning Gus, Jeff. If you would have went Good Evening Gus, you would have got all your initials.
Starting point is 00:07:17 All three. GG. Yeah, that's true. Perfect symmetry. Unfortunately, it's a show about drinking coffee in the morning. And Gus doesn't want his name in the title. I'm saving Emma. Did I tell you that?
Starting point is 00:07:28 No. I feel like it's the one thing Rooster Teeth makes that I would be a fan of if I didn't work here. Like, that's the only thing the whole company makes that you'd be a fan of? Well, I mean, I'm involved in so much else of it. No, that's true. I'm talking about something that I don't touch.
Starting point is 00:07:44 Yeah, you have't have, you have zero involvement in. Yeah. That's kind of how I feel about, like, 30 Morbid Minutes. Yeah, right? So, like, I listened to the first Anima when it came out, and I was like, oh, this is my shit. I can't wait to listen to this. And one day I'm going to listen to all of it. I assume
Starting point is 00:07:59 when it's long over. Yeah, that'll be, you know, that'll really help their metrics. They're really sure. Good friend. But I determined when it's long over. Yeah, that'll be, you know, that'll really help their metrics and really show them what they're doing. That's a nice one. Good friend. But I determined during that, Eric has the best job at Rusity.
Starting point is 00:08:14 If anyone who has to get pre-mad, I feel like that's a tough case to make. Yeah, Eric, how do you feel about that? I like my job. I like producing stuff. Yeah. In order for me to do a podcast with Jeff and Gus, I have to do two separate podcasts. Do you want to be on Anima?
Starting point is 00:08:30 No, no, no. I don't want to touch it. I'm a fan of it. Well, I mean, if there was an episode that was covering an era of time that I was involved in. But otherwise, no. That's kind of the whole show. Yeah. You would be appropriate for almost every episode
Starting point is 00:08:46 yeah that's yeah you'd really just slot in he sure loves anma he is the biggest anma guy i know he supports it he loves it he does all of it i appreciate the one episode i think it's great that i i appreciate the stuff it's the stuff that i started liking at the beginning, like 2003 when I joined the website. And it's like that era still being made. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I mean, it's definitely, you get like a lot of stories that are on Mike. And I do really think there are times where I think I have the job that people who love Rooster Teeth would love to have.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Because there are a lot of stories that you get off Mike that you're never going to get on Mike. And you go, oh, man, yeah, that's, yeah, we'll hang on to that one don't ever say it it's pretty good i gotta i gotta say eric i think the best the absolute best part of that other podcast uh i do anma that you produce is the drive to the production and the drive back from the production it's so fun the car rides are the best because that's when we tell you the parts that we couldn't tell them in the podcast or you know reframe it yeah it's so good it's it's a lot of fun it's like so and i get a free cup of coffee every monday so it's like same that's really all i'm looking for it's great yeah i feel like if that job existed and that was the
Starting point is 00:10:02 only thing you did eric you would have the perfect job at Rooster Teeth. I agree. And it's like that for Face Jam a lot of the time, too. Like driving to get the food and driving back. And then, well, we don't really go anywhere or do anything. And then when we do go somewhere, it's just a lot of questions about why isn't this set up? And I don't know. I didn't know it was supposed to be.
Starting point is 00:10:21 Where are we going to plug in this baseball launcher? Yeah, it's a lot of that stuff. And it's like, what is this for? We're not getting anything out of this. So you would say you really like Animal Cabin. You would say you enjoy it. You're saving it to use your own. I would say, if anything, it's content made for me.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Okay. Well, what's really interesting is that content not made for you apparently feet feet content you don't plan on touching at all which is identical to the content that is made for you so when are you actually interacting with content what are you enjoying it what are you are you only watching and listening to things you kind of like what What's the line for you? Well, I feel like while working here, I'm often just proofing stuff. No, I don't mean here. I mean in general,
Starting point is 00:11:11 because it sounds like the things you really enjoy, you're saving. Are there other shows you're saving? Or is this it? This is actually a good, it was a weird approach, but it's a good question. Similarly to how I have yet to finish Schitt's Creek because I like
Starting point is 00:11:25 that it's still out there I still have half of the last season to watch like when you guys were talking about over the final like norm stuff right yeah it's like you want it to be out there but you don't necessarily want to listen to it yet or watch it yeah I'm gonna say this didn't go the way I want it I just wanted to slam you again for the feet thing but it went
Starting point is 00:11:41 into a real sincere place which is nice but but is not what I wanted. I got my goalie gloves on this episode, baby. Hey, if you guys don't mind, I have a life hack I'd like to share with you. Oh!
Starting point is 00:11:58 Please. This is definitely our hacking era. I love it. Yeah. And Gavin, I will say in full transparency, I did run this by Gavin last night when we were playing Call of Duty. It is a... I think he liked it. I think it's a real life hack.
Starting point is 00:12:14 We'll see what you guys think about it. And this is, to be fair, this isn't exactly my life hack. It's kind of Emily's, but I definitely benefit from it. So I don't know about you guys, but I get really bored of going to the grocery store. Just like you just go to the same grocery store, you walk down the same aisles, you pick up the same shit, and it just becomes very repetitious, very rote, very boring, very laissez-faire, right? And we always lament that we're bored going grocery shopping and they wish we could spice it up a little bit.
Starting point is 00:12:46 So Emily came up with this idea. She found this app or website where you can, it's like a randomizer, and you can put in different stuff and randomize it. So she has this big wheel and it's got like 10 grocery stores from around town on it, all over town. Could be HEB, could be Central Market,
Starting point is 00:13:01 could be Whole Foods, could be Arlen's, could be Fresh Plus, could be Randall's. We got a lot of grocery stores. And anytime we have to go grocery shopping, we now have to spin that wheel. And whichever grocery store we land on, that's the grocery store we have to go shop at. So if it's like across town like it was the other day, we have to drive all the way over to East 7th and Pleasant Valley to go to that HEB because that's where the wheel landed. And that keeps it from being repetitious or boring.
Starting point is 00:13:29 I think that's great. I don't think it's a life hack, but I think that's a lot of fun. I love the idea. It's a life hack to keep grocery stores from being boring. Add some randomness. Hacks, I feel like, usually save time or money, right? Is that what defines the hack? Or increase joy or happiness. I don't think that's typically a measurement for a they feel like usually save time or money right is that what what defines the hack i think or
Starting point is 00:13:45 increase joy or happiness i don't think that's typically a measurement for a hack but i don't know why it couldn't be i just i don't hmm i like it i want i don't want it to seem like i'm negative on this i think that's a great idea i think that's so much fun that'd make it more exciting it could be annoying it just is great in so many ways. But I don't think you're hacking necessarily. I think you've just come up with a system that is more enjoyable for doing a mundane task. But it's not an alternate path around it. You're still grocery shopping.
Starting point is 00:14:20 Yeah, but you're doing it in a different and new way to make it more interesting and enjoyable. Yeah, I just don't think it's a hack, personally. But I love it. Andrew, have you suggested any hacks since your McDonald's thing? No. And I still think that my McDonald's thing,
Starting point is 00:14:34 which you destroyed, is the closest thing to a hack we've had on this show. I can't believe that I started the hack thing, and I didn't know your complete incompetence in knowing what a hack is. It really would change the context of that entire conversation if I had the knowledge I know now,
Starting point is 00:14:52 which is not a life hack. Don't write that down, Kevin. Having knowledge that is, we've covered that with the songs. It's not, it's just good. It's a good thing to have, but it's not a hack. So there you go.
Starting point is 00:15:03 That's my life hack. Well, no, I have more questions about the life hack so there you go that's my that's my life hack well no it's i have more questions about the life hack okay sure is it just grocery stores or is it also items i mean you could apply it to anything we actually have it for valentine's day because we similarly when we when we don't have anything at home to cook and we have to order food for dinner like i'll be honest i'm sick of all food like nothing ever sounds good i'll never get excited about anything and so when it's like seven o'clock at night we realize we had nothing to eat and we're like what do you want you want chinese mexican
Starting point is 00:15:34 what do you pizza and we're always like i don't want any of it what do you want we just have to fucking just like our like not even argue just like come up with something some kind of food to fucking eat to pass the night uh she bought me these dice that just have different kinds of food on it so now we just roll the dice and whatever we land on that's what we eat last night we had mexican i that's fun too i'd like to take this to the extreme planted on one of the things that you didn't want yeah but i had to eat it because i had food dice. That's what it is. I like the idea of like
Starting point is 00:16:06 you guys wanting butter just to have in the house or milk, but you can't because the wheel hasn't landed on milk in three weeks. Landed on it yet, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Yeah. I think that's fun. Like you can only eat, like maybe you get like, maybe we do a competition where we come up with some sort of six-sided or 12-sided die
Starting point is 00:16:21 and then you get like four dice rolls and then you have to eat those four things for a week. Yeah. Maybe you get 10 dice rolls and you just have to make what you can out of what you what you what you roll the ingredients you have yeah not like necessarily that's interesting that's fun i don't think that's a hack but that's that's a great game i think it'd be better with haircuts what you mean like you have a wheel of styles and you have to spin it and no you just like just put on like 10 different barbershops that you've never been to and just
Starting point is 00:16:50 roll the dice oh you're talking why is that why is that better it's just higher stakes it's pretty low stakes because a lot of grocery stores are pretty no this isn't a hack eric this is just a way to make the game more i think it would be funnier if you had hairstyles on the board but you went to your regular person guess I'm getting a mullet why doesn't every barbershop have a wheel of eight haircuts if I was
Starting point is 00:17:16 a barber I would offer like a 25% discount if people were willing to spin the wheel I'd absolutely that'd be great time that might be a great time. That might be a hack almost. That's getting in the hack territory. Is that hack territory?
Starting point is 00:17:31 That's maybe hack territory. I don't know. But if you could force somebody to get a hairstyle they don't want in an attempt for a discount, I think that's great. I would say we should do this with the bingo balls, but you would have the most normal haircut, Andrew, come out, and I would have a mohawk on the side of my head the problem would be
Starting point is 00:17:48 we cannot rely on my ability to convey what the haircut is unless it's like a mullet I don't know how to describe getting my own like taking it back to the first episode that's why I always end up with a guy I just say do what you usually do because I don't know how to describe haircuts
Starting point is 00:18:03 do you have a picture of your hair in its form that you like the most no I don't when the guy's done cutting your hair what do you want to end up with short but not like
Starting point is 00:18:20 super buzzed but like short but not buzzed but short keep going i don't i don't well that's it that's the loop that's i don't know what else to say you don't know how to describe i have no idea i'm so bad at it that's why i didn't get my haircut for like well i mean the pandemic also didn't help but like once we went into lockdown i couldn't go to the retirement home it was like two and a half three years before I got my... It was the longest I've ever gone without a haircut.
Starting point is 00:18:48 And I like the guy I have now. It's great. But I haven't been back since I got it cut last year. I'm coming up on like a year since I got my haircut. So you're happy with what is currently on your head? I need to get it cut. But once again, it's the thing of I've only been to this person once. It's been a year.
Starting point is 00:19:02 They're not going to remember. I'm trying to remember what I said. So that means you still got your own trim. Didn't you trim your own hair recently or a few months ago? Sometimes I would cut parts of it when it would just get too long. It would be my face. So you still have some of that? I haven't done that in a while,
Starting point is 00:19:19 but I really do need to book an appointment to get it chopped down. It was shorter than I would have wanted last time, but I kind of liked it. So I don't even know how to describe that at that point. I'm just completely lost when it comes to hair. Do you worry about where you get your hair cut? Is that a concern for you? Because if I went to a different place,
Starting point is 00:19:38 I'd have anxiety about it because I'm bad at it, but generally speaking, I don't think I'd care. It's always comfort in having a person that you know. I used to not get my hair cut in America. I used to just wait until I'd be back in England. What?
Starting point is 00:19:56 There's some artistry to it, and you develop a relationship with your hairstylist. They understand your head and your hair and what you like, and they remember that from time to time. It's like, yeah i i can i can understand wanting to go to the same person over and over again yeah i can't do it it's just when you travel across the world when a flight is involved that's weird i'm not flying to get a haircut i'm just doing it while i'm there just coincidentally just have i'm just gonna go in get my haircut while i'm here
Starting point is 00:20:23 type thing yeah i'd say for the first two years i lived in the US, I only got my haircut in England. And then I just got bored and went to Supercuts next to the office. Life hack. Life hack, Supercuts. Life hack, spend 15 bucks instead of 2,000. cuts life hack spend 15 bucks instead of 2000 that is like traveling somewhere specifically for your haircut like getting on a flight that is extravagant yeah to be clear i never did that no you didn't but okay like i like the idea of being being in a place where you feel comfortable enough financially that you would take a flight to get your haircut but not financially comfortable
Starting point is 00:21:04 enough to pay for first class. Like, you're at the back of the plane. You're in, like, the discount seats. I would say that level of wealth doesn't exist. If you've got the money to fly somewhere for a haircut, you have the money to fly the hairdresser to you. That's true. I agree.
Starting point is 00:21:20 Yeah. That's a fair line. They're cutting your hair in your kitchen or something. Yeah, that works. I'm jealous of you, Jeff, because Emily just cuts your hair, right, at this point? Yes, I'm very fortunate that I live with a stylist. It's super convenient, and I definitely feel very lucky and fortunate every day of my life. Do you have something to unveil this episode, Gavin?
Starting point is 00:21:46 Are you still working towards whatever it is you're building? Oh, I've worked on something over the last couple of days, and I will be presenting it tomorrow. Oh! So it's not ready today. Okay. That's disappointing. I have to wait tomorrow for it?
Starting point is 00:21:59 You want me to do it now? Well, why would you save it for tomorrow? Is there a reason why? I don't know. It's just always nice, I think, sort of, what is it? Office day, that I have something to show. A little thing I can edit or...
Starting point is 00:22:11 Sure. Is this the best of? Or is the best of still in the works? This is the best of. The best of. Okay. It's pretty short. I guess it's tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:22:21 Really? Is it just noises I made? I showed Jeff my list of episodes and time codes and Jeff could not figure out what was going on. I have no clue. Huh. I guess enjoy people
Starting point is 00:22:38 that are listening to this at some point in the future. Gavin's best of face. Don't get your hopes up do you guys have do you guys have anything else on your list to talk about today not really that I want not not that I have I always want to give everybody a chance to
Starting point is 00:22:57 check out their list before the episodes over because you always forget and then you look and you're like yeah wait a week I had a childhood like memory kind of ruined I don't think it's that necessarily interesting but people of my age i think gavin you might be a little bit too old do you ever see the yoplait give me yope in the morning commercials there are these like iconic and people that are around my age grew up on these yoplait commercials where it was give give me yo me mama and they would it was just like it's just like people are freeze frame and it's like kids being like give me yo
Starting point is 00:23:31 my mama whoo yo mama like it's the whole thing about having yogurt in the morning and i was watching i was doing like a youtube music trivia thing and they're like name this song and it was the give me yoke my mama song and I was like what the fuck this is a real song and I looked into it it's a song about like the apartheid like it is a very serious song that they they took and
Starting point is 00:23:58 covered for a yogurt commercial in the morning like it is they completely yeah that's Eric just posted a yoke me mama link it was always the fun goofy yogurt song but knowing that they just changed the lyrics to like a very serious song to sell i throw my sandwich in the air sometimes yeah it's so bad it has ruined it so i'm sorry for anybody else who else who grew up with that commercial and remembers it. And it's now ruined. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:24:27 Yeah, I was. I don't. It was insane that they did it. I guess people were really mad at the artists at the time for giving up the rights for them to do that. But then there's like six other iterations of people doing it. There was a what was his name like Roy Miller or something. There was a football club that like their slogan became give me hope. And then like a guy's name in the same like tune.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Odd, but just ruined. It ruined a childhood. It was like a top tier commercial for me growing up. You'd see it all the time. Dead. What is your favorite flavor of yogurt? Not a yogurt guy. Same, dude.
Starting point is 00:25:03 I fucking I don't like vanilla. Not a fan. what a boring answer oh jesus i mean it's true i like i mean vanilla is not exciting you well yeah but a criticism going with what eric wrote like you hate yogurt but you like yogurt commercials because i'm a kid like it's a fun like you just we'd see it all the time it was like a jingle that would get stuck in your head did you have a bad yogurt experience no i never really touched yogurt i because yeah i just i was not like typically allowed to have it i had yogurt i desired i had yogurt in kindergarten and i didn't like it and the teacher made me eat it anyway and then so i had to eat it and then we
Starting point is 00:25:40 were painting and i started to feel sick and i threw up on the girl i haven't i haven't eaten yogurt since kindergarten you haven't eaten yogurt since kindergarten and it was yo play yeah oh it's yo play fuck yogurt fuck that fucking teacher and i'm i feel so bad for the little girl i threw up on i used to get uh little yogurts in my packed lunch at school and i would have froobs which is like i guess like uk equivalent to a go-go or something it's like in a tube and you squeeze it out brooms builder yog was my favorite brand growing up but there was this guy who i would always eat near and he'd see me on my froobs sucking down the the yogurt and he'd always just on my froobs sucking down the yogurt
Starting point is 00:26:25 and he'd always just squeeze the tube like while I was and it would go all over my face and my shirt and I always he did it so many times I'd be like to the point where I'd try
Starting point is 00:26:33 and like eat it around the corner before he could see and we eventually negotiated that I would only be bullied on Fridays he wasn't allowed to do it Monday to Thursday. You got fruit bullied?
Starting point is 00:26:47 Yeah, I got fruit. He actually ended up being one of my really good friends. Was it Dan? No, no, no. Eventually he'd be like, come on, it's Friday. You know what?
Starting point is 00:27:01 Come on. And I'd be like, and I'd just relax my hand and he'd just blast it. And depending on how much I'd opened the end of the tube, like, if it was a really fine slit, it would come out so forcefully. It would, like, shoot all up me and, like, go in my eyes. And I'd just, for some reason, be totally fine with it
Starting point is 00:27:20 because it's on a Friday, and I'd have to accept it on a Friday. Nick, could you please isolate Gavin saying he would catch me sucking down my tubes I just want my boobs. I heard tubes. It's like tubes scavenger sucking away at his tubes I like the way I negotiate my way up it being every day oh my god oh I got a new text alert noise now this is great every my ringtones is gonna be sucking down my tubes even though it's frubes
Starting point is 00:28:01 sounds like tubes frubes everything is so much more fun that little guy looks panicked he is not happy he does on the frube logo it's easy he's got thumbs up but it's a there's a panic look on his face where he's like please don't suck me scalped yeah oh please don't eat my brain uh uh i just those for the shit i just want to circle back the uh yo play song give me yope uh is uh based on the song give me uh give me hope johanna which is yeah thank you about johannesburg in uh south africa and it's by ed Eddie Grant, the guy who sang Electric Avenue.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Really? I didn't know that. It's the Electric Avenue guy. They can't use Electric Avenue? That's what I'm saying. They picked the wrong Eddie Grant song for their yogurt commercial.
Starting point is 00:29:05 You gotta walk down two and suck down all your twos. Like it kind of works. The fact that I just came up with that. There's something there.
Starting point is 00:29:23 That's it. That's the last of my notes. Man, I got so many still i got like a hundred what you got uh oh here's one i've been you know you guys know uh do you guys know about how i uh i've been watching movies yeah yeah i've started movies again i've been watching well i mean 2022 it was music right yeah i was really i'm still really into music but i've been watching well i mean 2022 it was music right yeah i was really i'm still really into music but i've decided that 2023 i'm gonna i'm gonna watch movies again okay i haven't seen any movies in a few years okay so i got me thinking if i'm gonna watch all these movies maybe it would benefit people if i did like a movie review okay of like the different movies
Starting point is 00:30:03 that i see to let people know about the movie. I was gonna see what you guys thought about that. I think it'd be newer movies, right? I just watched this movie on Hulu the other day. And I could talk about it if you'd like. It was called Gone in the Night.
Starting point is 00:30:20 Are you familiar with this movie? No. Do you know about this movie? No. It's a relatively new movie. It stars Dermot familiar with Darned in the Night. Do you know about this movie? No. It's a relatively new movie. It stars Dermot Mulroney and Winona Ryder. Okay. Famous actor and actress. You've seen them in a lot of stuff. Most recently, Dermot Mulroney was in a ton of stuff,
Starting point is 00:30:37 but he was really good in Where the Day Takes You. I don't know if you remember that movie. It was about Will Smith was in a wheelchair in that one. Ricky Lake was in it as well. Winona Ryder, she was in a lot of stuff. Really good in Mermaids, but was most recently also in that movie with the
Starting point is 00:30:53 Sad Kids. What's it called? And then they go upside down. Oh, the Stranger Things? Stranger Things, yeah. Yeah, those kids. Sad Kids. This movie came out I think in like last year, this year, last year. And I saw it.
Starting point is 00:31:09 Okay. And it's about some mystery and some intrigue and some things that may or may not be happening. And, you know, I think there's some things about it that some people might like.
Starting point is 00:31:19 But then also, you may not like it. So I don't know. But I did see it. And so I think that there are some people that might like it. Probably some people that wouldn't like it. So I don't know, but I want, but I did see it. And so, uh, I think that there are some people that might like it, probably some people that wouldn't like it. So just take that into consideration. If you,
Starting point is 00:31:29 if you're going to see that movie, there's a good chance you may or may not like it. Yeah. That's my review. Okay. I, I just looked up Dermot Mulrooney. Uh,
Starting point is 00:31:37 he's not who I thought it was. I had somebody else completely in mind. Who's the, uh, American horror story season one guy. It was the dad in that show. What else he in i feel like he's like dermot i think he also has a name like dermot is he no but he's very they're very similar it's like the same dude dermot moroni was in the gray and he i remember him from that that's my point of reference for him but i don't remember
Starting point is 00:32:03 who am i thinking of? You're thinking of what is that guy's name? I know because I was going to recommend a movie that he was in, but I don't remember his name. Oh, maybe Dylan McDermott. Dylan McDermott. And what was who did you say? Dermot Mulroney. Okay. It feels it's essentially the same
Starting point is 00:32:19 and they're probably the same age too. Probably. Anyway, so I figured that I'd give that a shot. That was my movie review. I want to give away too much of the plot for the next review there's some intrigue uh there's going to be some people that are going to be on i would assume the side of winona rider probably some people that'd be on the side of dermot maroney uh you may you may feel one way or the other or end up somewhere in the middle uh anyway gone in the night it was I believe it was on Hulu. If you're looking for a movie,
Starting point is 00:32:48 I can't recommend that you'd like it, but you might. Maybe not. Anyway, next time I watch a movie, I'll let you guys know. Maybe I'll do another review. You grab the DVD. You might like this, but you might not. I don't know. Maybe. Opinions are...
Starting point is 00:33:03 Everybody has a different taste. That would be the best to see on a box, just a review. Jeff's face review, like they source it. Opinions may vary as the text they pull. Maybe it's just the dictionary definition of opinion.
Starting point is 00:33:20 That's my goal, is to get one of my reviews listed on a poster somewhere Four point nine out of ten on IMDb. Yeah, it's probably about how where I so you're not wrong That's like halfway right yeah about a half about probably some of the people liked it probably some of the people Thanks place in California if that helps I just watched rollable which one the James Ca khan one or the alakul j one the james khan one okay how was it um i'd give it five okay five yep now if you
Starting point is 00:33:54 great stunts everything else dog shit that's sort of nice shots of buildings too rollerball does not look nearly as i've never seen it i've only seen like the dvd box art and their roller attire is not nearly as cool as i thought it would be it's like american football meets lacrosse meets nascar meets roller derby uh when people getting killed and blood splatter all over the place the art for it is so much cooler than what they did. I would say, best font in a film. You talking about the number? Like the number six on his jersey?
Starting point is 00:34:33 It's a pretty fucking cool font. Yeah, and that's the rollable text that comes up at the beginning of the film is in that font. And everything, everywhere, even though they fly to different countries, that font has taken a... I think the movie is about that font.
Starting point is 00:34:47 What is the movie about? Is it just like... Is it just an action movie? Is there like, he needs to save his family by winning the championship? No, it's about corporations have taken over the world and he's, you know, a defiant individual.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Okay. Oh, what's this? Oh, yeah, here it is. In a corporate-controlled future, an ultra-violent sport known as rollerball... Now, this is, by the way, to clear up any confusion, this is the plot of Rollerball, not the plot of Gone in the Dark or Gone in the Night,
Starting point is 00:35:19 which is the one I reviewed. This is Gavin's review. In a corporate-controlled future, an ultra-violent sport known as rollerball represents the world, and one of its powerful athletes is out to defy those who want him out of the game. At some point in the film,
Starting point is 00:35:34 a bunch of people take a gun... It's the story of Russell Westbrook. A bunch of people take a gun and just start blowing up trees, and I don't really know why that scene is in there. It doesn't really... Huh. Now, if you're going to pair...
Starting point is 00:35:48 You guys might have to watch it and tell me what that's about. Now, let's say if you were, like, a film sommelier or an entertainment sommelier, Gavin, what would you pair rollerball with? Running man. So you watch rollerball... Running? Really? Okay.
Starting point is 00:36:01 Have you ever seen Ice Pirates? I have. I've seen Snow Pirates. I've never seen Snow Pirates. Or is it Ice Pirates? But Ice Pirates? I have. I've seen Snow Pirates. Or is it Ice Pirates? But Ice Pirates. Is it not Snow Pirates? Is it Ice Pirates? We're certainly thinking of the same thing. Yeah, it is Ice Pirates.
Starting point is 00:36:16 You're right. I have seen that. It's good. They'd be similar in tone. We're going into a different field. Rollerball, I think, followed up with Bill Lamberter's combat basketball for the SNES is a great one that's interesting
Starting point is 00:36:30 yeah I think we're in our dystopian sports era I watched Fast and Furious 9 on Monday is that the new one I hadn't seen it yeah the most recent one I think Gavin and... The one we saw in 40X. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:47 What a shitty movie. Those things suck. I'm so sad. They were so much fun. They're just not fun anymore. It's really like all the things around Paul Walker being dead but not dead
Starting point is 00:37:01 feel so awkward. They really should have just like either removed that character entirely and never mentioned him again for after what they did but like the kind of half step they take like it's one of the characters to live on they do but they don't like it so the things they do in the movie makes sense with the context of knowing what happened in real life but the idea imagine if you had a kid gavin and you named your kid little jeff like that's just weird for like just a guy you're friends with that you still
Starting point is 00:37:32 theoretically hang out with like it's so strange i guess i don't know it's just like oh it's a little bryant it's like that's weird like i get what you're doing because he's dead and it's like an in memory of for him but not within the world that you've set I've always wanted to name my kid Jeff really yeah because his name would be Jeff free I love it Jeffrey free Jeffrey free
Starting point is 00:37:54 because Gavin's last name is free yeah yeah no it works Jeffrey I made that joke to Meg once when we first started dating. It was like when I was hanging out with her at SourceFed. And I was like, yeah, I'm going to name a kid. I'm going to get a kid and name it Jeffrey.
Starting point is 00:38:12 And she didn't get the joke. It just looked to me like I was a weirdo. I walked off. And then I think Steve Zaragoza was like, Jeffrey? I was like, yeah, because of my name. And then he cracked up. And then Meg was like, Jeffrey? I was like, yeah, because of my name. And then he cracked up. And then Meg was like, oh, I just thought you were really excited to tell me you wanted a kid called Jeffrey. I guess I'll date you.
Starting point is 00:38:35 Is that it, Jeff? That's your movie review? I mean, I can dig deeper. Can I get another one? How often are you watching movies? Then we can move on. I just want to know so I can anticipate how often. I saw Megan in the theaters.
Starting point is 00:38:48 You saw, yeah, we talked about the M3. M3? Yeah, I saw that. With the numbers? Yeah. So I saw that and I saw Gone in the Night and then those are the movies. I once, I feel like my parents were very protective
Starting point is 00:39:03 when I was younger about which movies I watched. They weren't protecting you on the fucking streets when you're getting bullied over your yogurt, but they watched the movies. Jesus. Yeah, they would always like read up on the film or like even watch it to make sure I could watch it. And my mom was livid once because I was watching Rush Hour, but I watched it with the director's commentary on, and at one point, I think Brett Ratner's like, oh yeah, and that's the guy who gives the blowjob in Boogie Nights.
Starting point is 00:39:32 And my mum was just in the room, and she was like oh! I pulled the DVD out. I was like, what are you watching? Even though Rush Hour is a really inoffensive film. Is it? I feel like Rush, no it doesn't, but i feel like there's like a crudeness at least i don't remember rush hour one as much but rush hour two definitely has a lot of crudeness to it do you think bamboo is actually
Starting point is 00:39:56 the strongest wood that's the one thing that has always stuck with me from rush hour two i remember watching it in theaters as a kid and there's a scene where jackie chan is like this is bamboo this is the strongest wood it won't break and i just have cataloged that forever as a fact that's just a fact in my head strongest wood in the world is australian buloke or buloke it's gonna be something that's sunbaked right 5060 ibf it's an ironwood tree that is native to Australia. The wood comes from a species of tree occurring across most of eastern and southern Australia known as the hardest wood in the world.
Starting point is 00:40:31 This particular type has a jank of hardness of 5,060 IBF. I don't know that unit of measurement. That sounds like a lot of it. Should we make a baseball bat out of it? That'd be interesting. I was thinking like fireplace wood but i'm just imagining it going on a wood turning thing like a lathe and it just smashing all the
Starting point is 00:40:51 the lathe up wasn't bamboo grass anyway is it technically wood is bamboo grass isn't it i don't know anything about bamboo eric says bamboo not even top 10 wow well i think that's because it it is actually grass rather than wood so strongest grass strongest grass definitely i guess is that what jackie chan says in the movie though it's not but like that's just a fact i guess i can tell you bamboo matches not at all flammable that's what i was dealing with my fireplace video do not go with the bamboo chop. No, what were they? What are they?
Starting point is 00:41:30 I'm blanking the word. Matches? No, not matches. I said matches. It wasn't matches. Toothpick. That's the word I was looking for. Bamboo toothpicks.
Starting point is 00:41:38 Jesus Christ. Speaking of fireplace, where's your eight-hour commentary? I don't know. Oh, I thought you were going to say, where's my Fireplace video? I don't know where that is. Wait, do you not put out your Fireplace video? No, my Fireplace video is not out. Oh, I thought we had released it on social.
Starting point is 00:41:54 I'll double-check back on that. We did commentary on it, didn't we? Yeah. Maybe it's out on social, and I just didn't know. No, maybe it's not. I'll check. We'll release it, because it is very good. Yeah, we didn't know. I just didn't realize it was on social. No, maybe it's not. I'll check. We'll release it because it is very good. Yeah, we don't want the audience to miss that.
Starting point is 00:42:09 Hey, now we're commentary. I'm going to do it next week. You're doing it next week? Are you really? Next week, yeah. It's on my schedule. Oh, that's exciting. I had a cold thing.
Starting point is 00:42:18 I was going to do it earlier, but now it's at a point where I feel like I'll do it and then we save it for next year, right? Would it be weird to just release that now? It's so removed. I don't think it would. I think it would be very us to do that. The whole fucking thing sucks.
Starting point is 00:42:32 We can release it whenever we want to. Now, were you pretty mad before going into that, Eric? Or was that? No, that was a side. I got sideswiped because I didn't think we were going to talk about that thing. I was so mad about it. Stupid. I think it mad about it. Stupid. I think it's a great video.
Starting point is 00:42:49 Eric and I came up with a new sport the other day. Oh, yeah. We were doing something for F*** Face. Okay. What fruit or produce, what produce do you think you could throw the furthest? Oh, okay. So you need something with some weight, but it also needs to... But not too heavy. You don't want it to be too heavy.
Starting point is 00:43:07 You don't want it to be too big. But you want it to be big enough for you to get a good grip on it. You need a good surface area. Can I use the plant to, like, whip the fruit off? Ooh. Hang on. Wait.
Starting point is 00:43:20 A plant to whip the... Are you talking about, like, a slingshot or, like, a high-ally situation? Yeah, like, say the fruit grows on a vine, and I whip the vine and propel the fruit? Are you talking about like a slingshot or like a high-ally situation? Yeah, like say the fruit grows on a vine and I whip the vine and propel the fruit off the end of it. I mean, what Gavin really wants to know is can he goat kick the fruit?
Starting point is 00:43:34 Do goat kicks count for distance? No, throw it. Just throw it? Okay. You just... An orange comes to mind, but the issue with an orange is it's two things in one like I feel like the peel the cover of it would hinder my ability for distance what I don't think he would if I peeled it I think it would disintegrate from the it would it would explode it would erupt um
Starting point is 00:43:58 disintegrate yeah I've never heard anyone say disintegrate before. Yeah, that is true. I was hoping that we'd step on. You've heard me say disintegrate? No, I've heard Andrew say it that way before. Yeah, I just said it. Yeah, I said it. Huh. That's interesting. I think, yeah, I think an apple or a slicing tomato
Starting point is 00:44:17 or something that's almost like fist size. You know, I guess disintegrate works because to disintegrate is to die, right? It's like an aggressive way of disintegrating. Dysintegrating. I guess so. I like that. It's fair.
Starting point is 00:44:28 I'll take this from you, Jeff. Gavin, if you get in on this dog pile, if you put one foot in this dog pile, we're going to Feet City, buddy. We're going to Feet City, you weird freak. We're going right back there. I was going to say, if you put one foot in this toilet. No. Because you do that.
Starting point is 00:44:45 And I don't want that anywhere around me. I'm just saying. I'm letting you know. I'm letting Jeff. No. Because you do that. And I don't want that anywhere around me. I'm just saying. I'm letting you know. I'm letting Jeff. Jeff can kill me for that. I'm okay with that. That's fair. He's earned that right.
Starting point is 00:44:52 I think Nick said apple. I think an apple is actually not good. I think an apple has the right size, but it's not dense enough. I also feel like an orange. An orange, maybe a cutie. Like you could really whip a little one. Eric, you had a very strong opinion that I disagree with.
Starting point is 00:45:08 I think avocado is the best throwing fruit. That's really good. I think that's good. I think a Haas avocado, avocado from Mexico, not like the crazy Florida ones, not like the giant Florida ones, like a regular avocado, I think you could probably throw that the furthest.
Starting point is 00:45:24 I think it's the right kind of grip. I think it has the right kind of density. I think it has a, like a regular avocado, I think you could probably throw that the furthest. I think it's the right kind of grip. I think it has the right kind of density. I think it has a center like a pit like a baseball does. I could throw a tomato further than you could throw an avocado. I do not agree with that whatsoever.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Let's do it. There's no way. Here's what I think we need to do I think we need to get together whether this is for the Olympics or something else but I think we need to get together with a tape measure at a field and everybody bring your fruit or vegetable
Starting point is 00:45:58 of choice and then we see we get down to brass tacks and we see who can throw what the farthest. I think that you can't be the one to select your... I think we have to have an impartial person go to a store and buy what you would call bog-standard version of each of these items.
Starting point is 00:46:17 That's fine. And then we would all get these things and then see who could throw... But it's kind of like a game of Halo, where you pick your weapon and then you just see, am I better with a shotgun than he is with an assault rifle? Can you throw your avocado further than I can throw my orange further than Gavin can throw his tomato further than Nick can throw his apple?
Starting point is 00:46:41 Yeah, but if I can throw a baseball farther than Gavin can throw a baseball, then we're not on equal footing. And it doesn't make sense. I think what's good about it is that you don't learn anything from this. Yeah. Okay. All right.
Starting point is 00:46:53 You know, in that case, yeah, whatever. I mean, that's a part of the decision-making process, right? You pick your weapon. You pick your poison. If you wanted to, could you eat your fruit to reshape it into something that might be better for throwing? Are you allowed to modify?
Starting point is 00:47:07 I think that's a disqualification. Yeah, I agree. I agree with everything about the avocado. I think the texture on the outside of an avocado lends itself very well to being thrown. I think the core, the solid core is great. But it's an oblong, weird shape that's not aerodynamic. Yeah, unless you spiral it like a rugby ball, it's going to have air resistance.
Starting point is 00:47:31 See, that's the thing. This is what I brought up to Jeff also, that I think if you showed someone a football and they'd never seen a football before, I think they would go, how do you, like, this is not aerodynamic. And then you see it fly through the air and you go, oh, never mind.
Starting point is 00:47:45 I was wrong. I mean, can you throw an avocado like a football? No, I'm using it as an example of something that doesn't look like it would be aerodynamic, but however is. But I'm saying, isn't that how you would want to throw that?
Starting point is 00:47:58 You think you should throw an avocado like a football? I don't think he knows how to throw a football. Can you spiral an avocado? Who's asking who what? I'm not really stating. I was just stating to everyone. If he would throw an avocado and
Starting point is 00:48:19 spiral it. Yeah, I was giving commentary on it. I was saying no. Who's asking who what? It's a fucking podcast. Like spiral it yeah as giving commentary on All the air kids in this question, I think that's a grammatically correct Can that be the name of the episode? Absolutely. Have you ever thrown a football, Gavin? No, I can't do that. However they make them spiral, I don't know how to do that.
Starting point is 00:48:57 That's what I'm saying. That was sort of my point. I don't think you know how to throw a football. In your head, that makes sense, but you actually don't know what you're talking about is what I was trying to say. It sounds like we need to teach Gavin how to throw a football at the same time
Starting point is 00:49:09 we're teaching Eric how to throw a frisbee. Yeah. Wow. There's a lot of learning to be done. We can swap skills because I can hurl a frisbee. I think Eric can too. I don't think it's the hurling part. It's the accuracy. It's not distance. My frisbee will go really far. It'll just keep going. The wrong way, but just keep going.
Starting point is 00:49:27 Is it a different wrong way every time? No, I mean, typically it's pretty much the same wrong way. So maybe if I just turn. I'm just going to spin. Flip whatever you're trying to do. I have a little 90 degree turn to my left and I'm off to the races. I mean, people would be really thrown off when you landed it in the place you wanted it'd be kind of
Starting point is 00:49:50 an oppressive trick right that's what Happy Gilmore is all about right sort of yeah little run up you eat pieces of shit for breakfast Jeff that's a movie yeah I've seen it. Oh, speaking of breakfast,
Starting point is 00:50:08 I got this. Emily got me this for Valentine's Day. Did you guys know that my favorite basketball player, Marcus Smart, has his own cereal called Wicked Smarts? No. Isn't that cool? Does it have a commercial? I don't know. I just know I have two boxes of the cereal, which got me thinking,
Starting point is 00:50:23 what if we had cereal someday? What would I don't know I haven't opened it yet to eat it. I I'm well, so you don't know I will but We'll call it an egg an egg I'm not saying we should make our own cereal, but if we did what would a face cereal be oh? To be like crunchy Ian's or something wouldn't it Crunchy Ian's Ian's oh that's good I don't but flavor wise I think we should get into cereal and froobs
Starting point is 00:50:53 I would be really scared To co-create a cereal with Gavin Where he got any amount of Flavor control over what we're dealing with What do you mean Salad cream cereal Yeah I think you're going to put little fucking diced onions in it or some
Starting point is 00:51:07 bullshit pickle that nobody wants but you think everyone loves. Gavin's like, here's a new cereal line that did plowman-o's. That would be a terrible logo for plowman-o's. Here's the thing with F*** Face though, is that we all vote on it and it's two to one, so I'm not going to be able to sneak in any ingredient am i that's true i feel like it
Starting point is 00:51:29 would not be a vote and we'd all just have the ability to bring something to the table for it no that'd be chaos we'd end up with freaking tots in there wouldn't we yeah this podcast isn't chaos you're right that's great we're very organized did we ever decide on on that magnet or are we not talking about that in the episode yet uh we can talk about it in sausage talk but we we were gonna get the the fridge magnet made but it's too fucking expensive so we're gonna try to figure out how to make it cheaper yeah we gotta figure out how to make it oh and then jeff started throwing out other ideas for like secret other magnet it was just like we can't even get the one fucking thing made eric shut my secret magnet idea down instantly and that, we can't even get the one fucking thing made. Eric shut my secret magnet idea down instantly.
Starting point is 00:52:08 And that's fine. We couldn't even get the thing made and you're already coming up with like special one-offs for it. And it's like, we can't do this. To be fair, Eric was pretty mad on the regular magnet.
Starting point is 00:52:19 He was. He was pretty, pretty mad. Just anticipating it. For the record, I gave up immediately. As soon as Eric gave me a look and then he's like, are you fucking serious? And I was pretty, pretty mad. Just anticipating it. For the record, I gave up immediately. As soon as Eric gave me a look, and then he's like, are you fucking serious? And I was like, okay, no, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:52:30 I don't want to make special magnets anymore. Just the bog standard fridge magnet. It's not even a bog standard magnet. That's the thing about the magnet. It's not a bog standard magnet. It's true. It's a pretty fantastic magnet. It's an awesome magnet.
Starting point is 00:52:42 But we can't sell it for... Nobody on Earth is going to buy a magnet for the price they want to sell it for. No. So we need to make... Premium magnet. We need to make probably 10,000 of them to get them at a price point that would be humane to sell to other humans.
Starting point is 00:53:00 Look, we were able to successfully premium up the bread clip. I was going to say, and that's a magnet. That's a fridge magnet. That's a magnet. So we're just iterating on that. And that one turned out great. No complaints about the bread clip that wouldn't bend.
Starting point is 00:53:16 This one definitely would work better than the bread clip. Well then, instant improvement. I'm excited for our office day. I've been anticipating whatever the best of is. Are you flying down for it or are you doing it remote? I'm going to be doing it remote. I'm flying down for it. What does that mean?
Starting point is 00:53:34 I'll be remote for this one. It was a good app. I felt we were wrapping up. Are we not wrapping up? How long have we been doing this? I guess we are now. No, we can keep going. I feel like I survived that one.
Starting point is 00:53:50 You did. You did. And I hate it. I hate that you did yeah but there's still time we should extend this do you have anything else on your list jeff that you'd like to talk about you know uh dude i have so much stuff on the uh on the throws throw something see um have i ever talked to you guys i know i've talked about this in another preview in another episode uh eric says to pick one thing so i'll pick this thing. Have I talked to you guys about my idea? I can't remember if it's video game talk or anima talk or podcast talk, so I never know. But have I talked to you guys about my idea where we all get a job at the mall together?
Starting point is 00:54:18 I can't differentiate mall talks, to be honest. We've talked about it in different times. I don't know if we've talked about all getting a mall job. The mall is and isn't back, depending on where you go, for sure. But I have some mall stats, actually. Did you guys know that there used to be 2,500 malls in America, and now there's only about 600? Really?
Starting point is 00:54:38 If you shot a bullet off one mall, how many malls would it go over? Well, in Nanaimo, you would hit eight. You hit all. You hit every mall. Yeah, so the mall is back. Everybody knows that. Except for the Lakeland Mall. If that mall sucks, fuck the Lakeland Mall. Don't go there. It's a waste of time. Just go to Barton Springs Mall. But I was thinking
Starting point is 00:54:57 how much fun it would be if we all got jobs. I could work at the, I don't know, California Pizza Kitchen, and Andrew could work at the sneaker store and Gavin could, he could be a bartender at the wine bar and Eric could work at Hot Topic. And we just like meet up at lunch. Nick could work at Claire's. Yeah. And then we all just hang out and we have like mall adventures together and we like play pranks on each other and on our breaks.
Starting point is 00:55:21 And we, we just live in the same mall and have like shitty mall jobs and just experience that like mall rats but we all had mall jobs i i feel like this is just face but in a mall can you imagine being a listener of face and you see jeff working behind the counter and then you see the american company great would it be and then instantly like all right i gotta find eric he's working around it somewhere he's at fucking suncoast selling dvds with the drop off of malls jeff are you worried that they're going to go extinct in the near future no i think that what'll happen is that the malls that are left the like there
Starting point is 00:56:01 will be a lessening of malls clearly there has already been a significant lessening of malls. I even read that it could... I think I said there's 600 left in America. Some estimates say it could go down to as low as 150. But the malls that are left will be solid, good malls. They're going to be great malls. Only the best will survive.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Exactly. It's too much of a good thing, maybe. And so we have to pare down to the appropriate amount of malls for the amount of people that need a mall in 2023. Similar things are gonna be happening to movie theaters in the next few years. As the middle class of movies dies out, like the mid-range movie dies out,
Starting point is 00:56:38 and movie theaters are existing only on blockbusters, and this year there really aren't gonna be any huge blockbusters that come out, I think you're gonna see a lot of of movie theater it's funny they were just talking about some of the bill simmons podcasts the other day but uh see a lot of uh i think a lot of movie theaters and malls maybe will close but the ones that are left will be like higher end experiences i would like that that's honestly like the biggest barrier i have to movie theaters now is there's like zero care about the experience once you buy a ticket people talking and after you
Starting point is 00:57:06 go to an alamo draft house or an ipix or one of those kind of gold class cinemas uh i'm not just trying to shell alamo but like there's a lot of different theaters that provide that experience uh there's a there's a small chain called violet crown cinema that's really good that's in a couple of states uh once you have that experience of like a high end movie experience where you like you can sit in a reclining chair and eat a pizza and drink a beer or a diet coke it changes it changes movies for you although alamo alamo's i think gone downhill the people just stand in front of me now it used to be that the staff would just take the paper piss off come back dump food while ducking and piss off now they're just like
Starting point is 00:57:46 strolling by like hey who ordered the sandwich and they'll just stand there really i haven't had that problem you know i had that no they just sort of like mosey about in front of the screen now i do the same thing whenever i go do a movie as well so i can't criticize that i like to just walk into random theaters and say, who ordered this sandwich? Who had the sandwich? I mean, in fairness, before they used to check what people ordered, they would often give my food to other people
Starting point is 00:58:14 and I'd just have to watch them eat it because they just pissed right off. Like when Ray ate my pizza. You're still upset about that. That was my one thing, Eric uh so i don't know how feasible that is but uh if you guys all want to get mall jobs with me at the same mall one day i bet it would be a lot of fun for 30 to 45 days i think that's fine but we should all have i like line of sight to at least one other person oh i totally agree like we should all be on the same
Starting point is 00:58:42 floor or close to each other except for for if one person ends up with a... One person has to work downstairs at the Old Navy, we just make fun of them. There's a hierarchy to the mall job. Yeah, I think as long as one of us can see one of the other us, it's fine. I think that just seems like
Starting point is 00:59:00 it would be so much fun. 45 days? Yeah, 30 to 45 days. We'd get it out of our system, and then we'd probably all quit. And we could carpool? Oh, we'd definitely carpool. That'd be part of the experience.
Starting point is 00:59:10 Yeah. It would have to be. I think that'd be the best part. Gotta carpool, yeah. And then we could bitch about our coworkers, and we could play pranks on them. We could play pranks on each other. I mean, we'd have so much fun.
Starting point is 00:59:24 You might be the only person writing mall fan fiction in your head i think about it a lot that's so good just like the idea of us still making this podcast but being like you wouldn't believe what happened while i was cleaning the fryers this week i was trying to convince gavin for a while. I saw a convenience store for sale not too far from where we lived back when we lived together. And I remember trying to convince you, Gavin, that we should buy a convenience store
Starting point is 00:59:52 and then just run a convenience store. And then just put webcam up in the convenience store and that's the show. It's just Gavin and I run a convenience store. It's just like clerks the show. I would love that. Yeah, but we didn't do it. Eric, get the credit
Starting point is 01:00:08 card. Eric, we buy a convenience store. Eric, will you be a reference for me if I fill an application into the mall? I gotta get a job at Foot Locker first and then I can be a reference for you. That's how I have good standing within the mall.
Starting point is 01:00:24 Okay, that's cool. Maybe he can put in a good word for me at the finish line. You got it. Or lids. I want to work at lids. Oh. No, I need to work at lids.
Starting point is 01:00:33 People just ask me, how does this hat feel? I don't fucking know. I have no idea. I can't wear a hat if it's big enough for this brain. I'll work at Gap.
Starting point is 01:00:46 Why Gap? Is that a throwback to what I said with the logo? Is that the joke? Yeah, okay. What was that response from that annoying response from Andrew? Why Gap? I was gonna say I wanna work at an egg, but I just said Gap.
Starting point is 01:01:10 That would have been funnier. Yeah, alright, well, thanks for the feedback. You're welcome. I can't wait to become workers at a mall. Here's why. I don't wanna work in there, Andrew. Let's have a few people between me and him. Andrew, you have to work at Old Navy.
Starting point is 01:01:18 Oh, man. You have to work downstairs. Oh, man. I'm gonna go to the bathroom. I'm gonna go to the bathroom. I'm gonna go to the bathroom. I'm gonna go to the bathroom. I'm gonna go to the bathroom. I'm gonna go to the bathroom. I'm gonna go to the bathroom. I'm gonna go to the bathroom. here's why i don't want to work there andrew andrew you have to work at old navy oh man you have to work down oh am i that crotchety did i come across that crotchety i'm an old navy guy now yeah oh man pants all day long
Starting point is 01:01:37 oh man oh my god i was oh honestly the pause gavin and then the annoyance is I couldn't remember what what it was. An egg, an egg. Right. That was the I couldn't remember either. I was my pause. Yeah, I was. That was that was like, what was the thing that Jeff said? We should probably we should probably wrap up, Eric. Eric is I think he's pretty mad that we haven't stopped yet. I want one last thing. You guys know how when they start a podcast sometimes or a video like you watch on YouTube, they'll clip a funny part from like halfway through, like a funny 45 seconds, and they'll tap it.
Starting point is 01:02:13 They'll tag it onto the beginning to like promo that moment to get you excited about watching it. Uh-huh. What if we did that for an episode of face, but we record it linearly. So we have to start the episode and the middle of a funny story. And then we just figure out a way to start and then tell that story. 30 minutes later in the broadcast. You're a,
Starting point is 01:02:35 you're a maniac. You're a fucking, that is the craziest. That's fucking crazy. Like a good example for this episode. I could have just said, I want to work a Gap, right? And then we have to find,
Starting point is 01:02:47 Andrew would have been annoyed, and then we find out how to get there naturally. It's exactly like- I think that's an amazing idea. Thank you. It's exactly like when Gavin and I, we, for mine, when we worked at Achievement Hunter,
Starting point is 01:02:57 we had this weekly series in the video game Minecraft, and we would make these elaborate Let's Plays where we'd build these games in Minecraft. And for the 100th episode of that series to celebrate, we made this huge golden pyramid and we made this scavenger hunt for all the people in Achievement Hunter to compete in it. And then the winner received these three items.
Starting point is 01:03:17 And then the three items were meant to help you on episode 200. And then we had no idea what episode 200 was, but we just threw three random items in there and said, we'll figure it out in a year. I don't think we ever did. But it's kind of
Starting point is 01:03:29 that same principle, right? Okay. That reminds me of that series I wanted to do on Achievement Hunter where we would... Chill, Eric. We would...
Starting point is 01:03:38 That... No, that was dismissive. Oh, wow. That was some fucking gas energy, wow. Is that how I sound? There was that worse. Is that worse? How did that compare to my gap? Because that was brutal.
Starting point is 01:03:54 You know, Eric, you're right. That's right. That's what I'm saying. We'll just keep going if we keep doing like this. Anyway. Let's talk about the story next week. Thanks, Gavin. I think it's a brilliant idea, too, and I think we should do it sometime in the near future
Starting point is 01:04:05 let's do it next episode next episode we're gonna start with the we're gonna we're gonna clip the funniest moment from the next episode and we're gonna attack it
Starting point is 01:04:12 at the beginning of the episode we just don't know what that is so we'll have to invent it in the moment and then figure out how to retrofit it into the episode 20 minutes in
Starting point is 01:04:19 thank you for listening to another episode of the F*** Face Podcast be on the lookout for a lot of supplemental content coming pretty soon. We're going to film the Golden Gerbler video that's going to go in the Golden Gerblers. We're pretty excited about
