Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello and welcome to another episode of the Regulation Podcast. This is episode 83. My name is Jeff Ramsey. With me, as always, Andrew Pant and Gavin Free, Nick Schwartz, Eric Padour. Who is the most on one today? Oh. Not me. In the pleasantries, it sounded like Andrew was a little wired, a little amped up.
Starting point is 00:00:20 A little amped up? Yeah. You got to bring the juice, Gavin. If I had to picture it, before you sat down and hit record, you were just stood next to your chair, punching the air just like yeah like animal from the Muppets I'm hitting everything on my desk I'm going crazy I'm ready this is episode
Starting point is 00:00:37 83 why don't you harness that energy and take us into the episode Andrew I sure am 83 great reasons to enjoy the show episode note one I got a story about arc raters I had a great art creators
Starting point is 00:00:55 experience last night I was told to spread the word and I think it was delivered to me in a way that they did not anticipate the word potentially being spread. I was having a normal Arc Raiders experience that was running around
Starting point is 00:01:11 as Luton and I came across a group of two. Aspiring artists, some may say, that have an event that they're going to share. I'm going to share my screen with all of you and I'm going to take you on a little bit of my Ark Raiders journey that I clipped
Starting point is 00:01:26 Wow. Throughout that Even go and find this on YouTube if you're listening find on YouTube I have Nick recording the screen I was in the space station there's lightning there's the lightning mode is everybody watching watching yeah I will hit play no I will not I will hit on zoom now I will hit play going up a zip line going up a zip line get ready there are voices in this I'm just I'm trying to loot the space board yeah going way up got to go to the spaceport got to see what's going on up here there's some good loot pop up immediately see a person that's scary that is scary
Starting point is 00:02:04 it's not going to be quiet for a moment because they start playing music oh yeah they're flute guys they're hell yeah join us for a live concert performance on December 6th So they wanted the word to be spread to December 6th, their Spotify, the recorder's single is dropping. It's out by the time this comes out. That just means you can go check it out now. So that was... Immediately started dancing.
Starting point is 00:02:50 Yeah, absolutely. You gotta, you know, go with the vibe. I'm not done, so I continue to clip with them because we're hanging out in the space. tower will ever open because this website is a piece of shit we're getting there why it doesn't matter Nick's gonna call us out of like what's the oh here we get so then I go up I go up to the top is that a different crew there nope same crew okay they're just hanging out they're looting they're looking for
Starting point is 00:03:22 stuff you know there's good stuff on the the roof but you have to jump between the two Is this nighttime mode or just like... Oh no! They attempted to jump between the two and they fell. Oh no, the day the music died! Oh, no! So the music died that day, unfortunately. I ran down to try to check on them,
Starting point is 00:03:44 and both of them were down by the time I got there. Did you help them up? Well, I didn't have... You need a defib to revive people. But they asked me if I had bandages because you can heal people when they're down to try to crawl. I didn't have any.
Starting point is 00:03:59 And so unfortunately, one of them bled out. Then I found some bandages, and I was able to heal the other one. So they're crawling, and they're working on getting back towards the port. But they gave me permission to loot the body of the one who had died. So I was doing my best to personally extract the one that was down. So you're just luring him out as he's slugging along the ground, healing him when he needs to. Yeah, they're trying to crawl to the extract, and I am shooting hornets instead. on the way, doing my best to protect them.
Starting point is 00:04:30 And this is the end of the journey of the talented musicians. They're saying like, hey, you don't, you don't need to be out here. This is dangerous, but I was committed. That was unfortunately one of the bodies. They didn't make it, but I took their flute, their recorder. Which felt like taking one of Jimi Hendrix's guitars. Nice shot, by the way. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:04:55 So I'm just searching making sure that the guy what they got. I have a better thing, so I don't need that. I got to go to protect them now. I'm gonna protect them and not only protect them, but I need to serenade them on their way to the exit. You just out in the oven. In the rain, they're rolling, you'll flut in. A lightning. No! And that's how it ends. It's like you called the lightning down on them with your flute. I I don't know if I've laughed harder in a game this year than running up and then be like, yeah, I'm still crawling and then realizing that the lightning strike had spawned on them.
Starting point is 00:05:36 Oh, no, no! And then just death. And then you never spoke to them again. Never spoke to them again. Took both of their recorders. I'm never selling them. I'm keeping them in my inventory. Those are collectibles.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Those are cherished items. No one has ever taken this. Separate somehow? Like, can you know which ones are there? on which one's a future recorders, do you think? That's a great question. I don't think I can. I went in for the first time and see if I could like make an item just like locked in,
Starting point is 00:06:05 like locked so you couldn't accidentally get rid of it in any capacity. I don't think you can. I plan on wiping my character, so I'll have to reset everything at a certain point. But I think what I'll do is I'll pass somebody my recorders for them to hold for when I reset. So I can get them back on the other side of it. Yeah, if we play again, I can hold on to him. You can regenerate your corpse, basically, into a new man, and then I'll drop them for you.
Starting point is 00:06:31 It would be amazing if you can hold on to these two recorders for the rest of your life. That is the goal. And then somebody can buy them in your celebrity auction someday. It would be cool if there was, like, a centralized app where you could hold your prize possessions from every game. Oh, I feel like that you're... I think you just described the blockchain.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Yeah, I was about to say that you just pitched what NFRAs. were shit as an idea but it doesn't work that way and I don't want to listen to anything about an NFT no it's a real sad yeah but if it was like
Starting point is 00:07:05 like so my favorite thing I've got Pokemon on the brain my favorite thing in Pokemon is to get the master ball in every game and immediately use it on the next Pokemon I see so I would like keep my master balls
Starting point is 00:07:16 with pidgees in them I think would be my prize possessions oh yeah that's interesting really annoys people as well when you shut them the video
Starting point is 00:07:25 if you throw a mastible a pidgey Eric what is your most prized video game possession
Starting point is 00:07:32 oh dude I don't know that I have anything that's a prized video game possession like
Starting point is 00:07:38 I don't I'm so ephemeral with games I don't keep I don't think to keep anything from games
Starting point is 00:07:46 that's tough do you have something like that Jeff I mean I guess if I did it would be
Starting point is 00:07:52 well I guess I guess I'm kind of partial to owning Achievement City, the world I created in, or we all created in Minecraft. But, I mean, that's not like an accolade from a video game. I guess the cluster that would be in, I really, I worked really hard to get those skins in Call of Duty. And I'm really mad that there's a new Call of Duty now.
Starting point is 00:08:09 I'll have the skins on the new Call of Duty. And it just makes me not want to play Calduty anymore. If I had to come up with an item that I would want to keep forever that I don't have access to, it would probably be the original Tower of Pimps, which was just some of Ray's goal. in his world. So I think, I mean, if he still has that world, technically Ray has the original Tower of Fimp still. That's interesting. I wonder if he does. I was thinking about it and what it would be. And I think it would be me in scribble knots. I really, like, that's the thing that I really, I don't necessarily have access to because I don't think I'm in scribble nuts
Starting point is 00:08:45 anymore. But like at one point, you could write my name and I would be in scribble not. Oh, that's so cool. Is that like a database of people? Is it just pull like white man's name from someone? Thanks, man. So all of Mega-64 is in Scribble Nots, but appreciate you, dude. It was a genuine question. Didn't feel like it. I take it as a genuine question. Yeah, that was the most defensive I've seen Eric get about absolutely nothing so far on this podcast.
Starting point is 00:09:15 I would say that that's my video game thing. Genuine question, but the question at its core is really, so is that actually about you, Is it just some generic bullshit that you didn't at all get for you? Yeah, but that was my genuine question. Yeah, but it's not, it's, it's, it's. Like, it could just, it could easily be programmed just to take up, like a man's name. No, I understand. I get the question.
Starting point is 00:09:40 I get your point. I'm saying that there is a level of, uh, dismissiveness. I asked, no, I asked a genuine question and I got a genuine answer. I got the information that I was actually asking for. But in a really minged off way. Yeah. Oh, we have so much filming together to do today.
Starting point is 00:10:03 I'm so excited. Hey, Andrew, can I, Andrew, can I point something out real quick? Of course. I appreciate you coming to my defense as well, too. So I'm trying to give you a heads up here. You have a habit of not stopping sharing your screen. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Yeah, that's fine. It's been all goddamn week with you. That's fine. Yesterday was for a reason. I know. but then the six hours afterwards weren't for the reason and then earlier this week the 24 hours also weren't for a reason okay so the six hours after was i was very tired after we did all of our recording yesterday and i fell asleep i had a nap yesterday was a was a pretty packed day huh yesterday was a packed day i was very tired i had a sleep
Starting point is 00:10:44 and i left it on the other one i just forgot but outside of that which is what happened yesterday also I understand. I think though, historically, I don't know if that's true. I think it's just been a bad. I agree historically you haven't had that thing. That's why I said this week you've been having a heck of a time. Yeah. Well, I want it.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Nick, Nick needed help with the thing or Nick was helping me with the thing. Yeah. Nick, either Nick needed help or I needed help. I think both was true. Yeah. A little of both. A little of both threw along some
Starting point is 00:11:24 Canucks analysis for Nick to listen to. Yeah, thank you. Yeah, you're welcome. You gotta stand top of it. I learned a lot. Power plays, penalty kills. Do you ever do anything on this computer aside from work or do you just do everything on it? I mainly use it for work.
Starting point is 00:11:39 Okay. What do you do on a computer that's not work in 2025? I'll tell you the other thing I use it for is I'll throw on like sporting events on. That wasn't like a sarcastic question. I'm just just out of curiosity because I watch most of my even my YouTube on my TV at this point
Starting point is 00:11:55 I was just thinking like outside of what I do for this company I don't really touch a computer much I think I would watch more YouTube on my TV if airplaying ever worked the first time dude Gavin you're so fucking on the money dude I feel the exact same way here's what Apple have designed is
Starting point is 00:12:13 oh there's a TV there with an Apple TV on it right I'll airplay to it it will turn on the Apple TV and turn on my TV. Airplay will fail to take what I'm watching on my phone to my TV. And then Apple TV auto resumes the thing that was previously being watched on my Apple TV. So here's what I'm doing. I'm watching YouTube. Oh, I want to watch that on the TV. Didn't work. Now, Downton Abbey is playing on the telly. And I have to go and find the remote and turn it off. That happens, I think, maybe nine times out of 10 for me. I don't think I ever use either in that way,
Starting point is 00:12:47 the way you're describing. Oh, okay. You just, I, I, I, I, I've never, yeah, I would just, like, go to the app and search for sloppy Joe's or whatever. Yeah, I just like to avoid finding the remote. Yeah, exactly, yeah, it's the remote and typing everything in. Isn't that, like, a headache? No, that's, yeah, definitely. I don't know, Jeff. Nick said it was a headache.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Well, I mean, maybe for Nick, maybe for guys like Nick, but it doesn't bother me, no. For guys like Nick. Yeah. Yeah, guys like Nick. What's up, Nick? you want to get right up on that microphone what so my guy's like
Starting point is 00:13:24 I think it's interesting the like evolution of I don't know a better word for it than like boomerism of like using tech like before just being completely tech inept and it's evolving to a point of like
Starting point is 00:13:41 you're using tech but just not in an optimal way which I feel very much a part of is I'm not I'm not airplane anything ever. Same. Doesn't occur to me to do that. Sometimes I'll airplay like a hockey game if if that's the only way I can get it. But yeah, it's, uh, I almost never
Starting point is 00:13:58 airplay. Yeah, to me, airplay just feels like a fad that never took off. I just wish they would use, I wish there was more like physical ways of doing it. Like there's NFC in a phone. Why can't I just tap my phone on the Apple TV and it just goes and if I'm wearing headphones, it's in there too? Like, why can't you just move stuff around
Starting point is 00:14:15 physically? I will say a problem. I agree with you right there. I will say a problem I have lately that has just started and I don't know if it's a product upgrade but now anytime I walk if I had Apple like my Apple headphones in if I walk within 50 feet
Starting point is 00:14:32 of any Apple device they just switch to that device and suddenly I'm not listening to my podcast anymore and I don't know how to stop it from fucking doing that but I don't want to transition from my phone to my TV when I walk in the front door that's annoying who wants that
Starting point is 00:14:48 if you wanted to do that you'd have to click like 17 buttons to make that happen of course it'd be impossible yeah it's just like a world I don't live in I feel like a YouTube wrong
Starting point is 00:14:58 yeah what's the most boomer shit way you use technology Andrew caps locks probably using that instead of the shift not really knowing shift at all well Andrew was while I was watching a true screen or I think I was just watching the folder on the NAS
Starting point is 00:15:14 but he made a folder with reverse caps It was like three words all typed in. It was like lowercase A, uppercase, advent. Yeah. I was just going to say that that is like, I said it to Gavin at the time of like proof that I am a Caps Locks guy. Also proof that you don't look at the screen. No.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Well, it depends. See, I, so my, my keyboard is to my far left. It's not in front of me. It's awkward to type anything. And it's also a small keyboard. So my hands aren't used to where the keys are naturally. What if you got a bigger keyboard and put it directly in front of you? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:50 I have one. I've ordered, but it might be too big. We'll see. Too big for the desk or just too big for your? It'll fit on the desk, but I have concerns about it. I didn't read how much it weighed until after I ordered it, and it's pretty heavy. I rarely read how much something weighs after I order it. Yeah, I agree.
Starting point is 00:16:10 Yeah. What made you worried about it? It's like 15 pounds, and that feels really heavy. Is it a fucking typewriter? I don't know. Why do you think the weight would be a problem? Do you pick your keyboard up a lot? It just makes me scared to have a 15 pound giant keyboard on my desk.
Starting point is 00:16:28 I don't think it's going anywhere. No, but it's like made a metal. I don't know. It just, it's setting it up. Regularly stand on my desk. You stand on your desk? What? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:40 Why? Why? Well, sometimes to like get to my lower monitor, I need to stand on it and reach over. and sometimes the cat is like on top of the thing behind my desk, so I stand on the desk to get it down. This happens quite a lot. Sounds like a bad setup to me. Gavin likes to cosplay dead poets society.
Starting point is 00:16:57 He says, oh, captain, my captain to Smee. I don't think I've ever stood on my desk. Well, I'm pretty sure the desk I have right now would crack in half of a second, dude. I'm at the office. I'm at the office. Okay. No, don't try it.
Starting point is 00:17:12 No, try it. Don't do the desk where you put the legs. on backwards, that one will collapse. Oh, yeah, hang on. Maybe if you go through, we'll have it on the security. You did it? Oh! No, I'm doing it now.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Oh. Let me see if I can take a screenshot of this. I'll take a screenshot. Nick, are you also in the office? No, not yet. Do I look like I'm surfing? Can we put that in Discord, please? I'll need that for the thumbnail.
Starting point is 00:17:39 Okay, let me post it. Oh, all right. So do you ever do this again, Eric, based on this experience. Is it worth it? No, waste of time. Yeah. I accidentally hit my volume as I was taking the screen show. Oh, cool. Hey, way to go, man. Way to go, Gavin.
Starting point is 00:17:55 You got some good stuff, dude. Definitely using that thumbnail. Don't worry. I'll get you. I'll get you a clean clean. I want the bad one now. Honestly, no need. Looks good, dude. Wait, Gavin, he's surfing the sound waves. What is, uh, what is your most boomer tech thing, Gav? Surely you've got one.
Starting point is 00:18:15 Oh, what do I always try and do that this is such a simple way for? I think my thing is like trying to create stuff that helps me out and saves me time that it just ends up costing me time, like that frickin' pedal for my mute button because it's me sitting on it. There's no need for it. There's no need to get fancy with it. Yep. I think we all agree.
Starting point is 00:18:39 Your setup is fascinating to me because it seems you are somebody that in my mind is always trying to optimize for, as you said, most efficiency. Well, I like to make use of stuff. Like, if I retire a piece of equipment, I just want to use it somewhere else. I don't want to, like, put it in a cupboard. So I end up, like, trying to, like, fix problems that don't really exist with stuff. It just, it feels like your setup in certain ways. It's just so overly complicated and doesn't work.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Tell me about it. Which part? Like, when you're trying to share. gameplay to somebody and you have to have a second Discord account in and then sometimes you have no audio at all or like when your mute button goes on and off a thousand times because there's a pedal that
Starting point is 00:19:24 the cat is sitting on. When you could just be using a mouse to click it like I don't No it's yeah the mouse didn't work What? What? How not? Because the freaking work? It worked if I unplugged the pedal.
Starting point is 00:19:41 It sucks. That's terrible. Gavin! Gavin! Come on! I'm on your desk and I'm on the pedal! That's what I did. That's how I got it to work each time.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Because when I click the mouse, that's when the mute button would be like the mute icon would be on, but I would like break through it. I would still be heard. So it sounds like you are a unique case where you add pieces of tech to create barriers for yourself. Yeah, really. Or most of the time, people are adding things or removing things for efficiency reasons. you are just creating new loops for you to jump through. I wouldn't have any of these problems if it was easier to sell stuff on eBay. I think it's not hard.
Starting point is 00:20:23 Yeah, I just think you don't want to. It's just quite a fath, though, isn't it? I don't think it is for people in there. What is the eBay selling have to do with your setup? Oh, I would just sell so much stuff instead of just putting it somewhere else. So do that. Yeah, and you just do that. What was the last time you sold something?
Starting point is 00:20:44 Do you regularly use eBay? I sold a bunch of cards on eBay last year as a test. It was fine. I was literally on eBay, like just a second ago, looking at Beatles rock band to see how much it cost. To buy? Yeah. It's very different than selling on eBay. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:00 But people have to sell it to me, so it appears to be pretty simple. I will say, it wasn't so hard for that person to list that VHS, Joan Rivers' video game we're going to play. Just saying. bought that yesterday for us. It just seems a little bit 19908 whenever I try it. Have you thought about just giving it away? Is it because it was 1998
Starting point is 00:21:21 the last time he tried it? Yeah, you could just, yeah. You just send it to people? Yeah. You want it? I don't want your pedal that doesn't work, no, but I'm saying that...
Starting point is 00:21:33 I just don't want a cat to sit on it. Put it on the curb. I don't think the curb necessarily. I'm saying that I feel like you could easily... They're probably... subreddits or even people in this community where it could be, you know, like someone that just posts like, hey, I have this thing.
Starting point is 00:21:50 I don't have a use for it anymore. Does anyone want this? I'm sure you could find people. It's interesting because... Do you want to search for people who want your trash? Not trash, though. It doesn't sound like trash. Like, he's getting new pieces in.
Starting point is 00:22:03 It sounds like the problem is it. Yeah, it's not trash. He still sees value in it. Right. That's the problem. So then I guess the question becomes, Gavin, do you think that realistically these items have value? or is it just a...
Starting point is 00:22:16 Okay, so they have... Because the last thing I... And I'm gonna use it in the way I intended again in future. I just, in the meantime, didn't want to have it just sat somewhere. I don't, I don't understand. Well, I'm gonna use it under a Pimble Machine again. It's the reason I bought it.
Starting point is 00:22:29 Got it. Okay. Oh. I just don't understand why you feel you have to use it, though, in that in between time. Yeah. And just made me feel better about it. When, so when it's mute, mute, mute, mute on mute, mute, mute on mute, mute, mute on mute, you're like, I don't feel good.
Starting point is 00:22:46 I didn't feel real good in that moment. Yeah. We felt really good about you too. How many kicks before you feel comfortable reversing it? Just having it unplugged. Is there like an amount of use you can use for an item before you feel like you're adequate and you're using? I feel like I haven't wasted it.
Starting point is 00:23:03 Yeah, so you can retire it or like just you're happy or comfortable with the idea knowing that you'll use it eventually in this way? I think just deep down I don't like waste. and if it's not being wasted it's just makes me feel better. I think, yeah, just it being like in a box for three years would be a waste.
Starting point is 00:23:22 See, I feel so the opposite when it comes to like retro game stuff where I have all these retro game type consoles and or just old games where it's like, I'm not going to be playing these all the time but just knowing it's accessible to me brings me joy.
Starting point is 00:23:38 In your filing cabinet? File and cabinet bags, closets, I need to like go through things. When you're starting a business, it's insanely stressful.

Fly Emirates Fly better The analog just released that N64 finally
Starting point is 00:25:47 I can't believe it shipped Yeah finally shipped I can't believe that in 2025 One of the things I'm most excited about Arriving is an N64 Yeah the HDMI It's gonna be great You need to play Donkey Kong 64
Starting point is 00:25:59 So it's an N64 with HDMI Yeah It's like a analog It like takes like the actual cartridge or is it Yes it takes the actual cartridge Analog is a company that like It's not, I guess it's technically emulation, but they view it as like the actual pieces, like it is constructed essentially in the same way. Hardware emulation, not software emulation.
Starting point is 00:26:20 Yes. So they're like fancy retro consoles that are very well made. And they released an N64 when they got delayed for a long time, finally came out. But it's like a modern N64 so you can like give it more RAM and stuff and it will run games that chugged back of the day and it'll run them smooth. Yes. and I'm happy that Gavin is getting one so he can play Donkey Kong 64 I think you told me about it
Starting point is 00:26:46 I did as soon as I saw it I sent it to you because I want to watch you beat the original Donkey Kong part in Donkey Kong 64 so bad so it's just a full on it's just a Nintendo 64 but you can hook up like other
Starting point is 00:27:01 controllers like so A bit Do or do makes the controllers for it and they made an in 64 one that looks awesome which is in the images you're showing. That's really cool. They made great controllers. Nintendo not to try to shut this down.
Starting point is 00:27:17 Yeah, right. Yeah, I'm sure that's what's happening. Yeah. They've actually, they've done quite a few of. So, like, they have this S-NES version of this that I have. That's awesome. They made an NES one that I don't. They did a analog pocket, which is, like, all the Game Boy stuff, and that's really cool.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Are these readily available, or are they in small print runs? small print runs that are not readily I think the pocket is very available but like the SNES and the NES ones I don't think they make the NES anymore but yeah they're great retro company analog that if you're somebody who cares about playing like the games on the old cartridges is probably the
Starting point is 00:27:56 best way to do it I'm a big I want to play on the original controller kind of guy oh really so like that controller doesn't do anything for you I'm assuming it would be nice for some stuff, but I'll probably play Donkey Kong on the original one. They made a retro turbo graphics? Why would you
Starting point is 00:28:12 even bother? That's incredible. That's crazy. Finally, the six turbographics games that I own, I can play again. Hooray. That's insane. Yeah, but Splatterhouse. Yeah, that's about it. And Bonk's Adventure. Bonk's Adventure.
Starting point is 00:28:28 Yeah, that's about it. I really want the uh oh the phillips console what was that i'm forgetting the name of it oh radio or something 3d oh the phillips 3d yeah i would love for that there's just like no emulation for that well there is but it's like it's not nearly a priority because that is not a love console but there's some really bullshit games on that thing that would yeah what games were on the 3d0 is that the one with those jankass zelda games on him it may have been i don't know about that it has a lot of uh like like light gun
Starting point is 00:29:05 type games that are oh Andrew we gotta get 3DOs 3DL was Panasonic so maybe is that what you're thinking of or was that did Phillips I want to I don't know what Where is Mad Dog McCree What platform did that come out on
Starting point is 00:29:19 Is that was Will Phillips had the CDI Maybe it's the CDI It's whatever the platform Mad Dog McCree came out on Mad Dog McCree is on the 3DO 3D out yeah video okay
Starting point is 00:29:33 oh this is like that V8 this is like a VHS oh are you not familiar with Matt Don McCreed just by name oh it's so good it is the most like stuntman ass actors doing a Wild West thing
Starting point is 00:29:50 and the acting is horrendous it's so funny they ported it for the Wii later I think it's probably the easiest way to play those games now But the original Mad Dog McCree.
Starting point is 00:30:05 It's stuff like just an actor looking into the lens and being like, you got to shoot these outlaws. And then just running around and like, create a, yeah, Eric Post another screenshot. So you end up just like shooting video clips? Yeah, you're shooting video clips. It's an entire run. The company that made Mad Dog McCree made like 12 different ones of these.
Starting point is 00:30:27 And they are all so special. We should somehow do a let's play. I want you so badly I was gonna say we should try to make one of these like how do you make a FMV light gun game it can't be that
Starting point is 00:30:41 if they did it in like the 90s it can't be that hard yeah we can probably do it right you can do it on an iPhone right should we do it where like the player is like visiting our office so there's just all this shit everywhere and like Andrew's walking by
Starting point is 00:30:52 and you got to try I'm up on the table surfing it's great there is let me find the of the game. I'll see if I can find the trailer for it. Back at Let's Play, I was trying to get Larry to help me figure out emulation for it because I wanted to do videos in it. But there is American Laser Games was the developer, which turned
Starting point is 00:31:19 into the studio that made the Nancy Drew games over time. That's what a lot of those people people love those Nancy Drew games. Yeah, they're great. But let me for this. It's called Crime Patrol 2 Drug Wars Hmm Let me see if I can pull up a trailer to show with you guys
Starting point is 00:31:40 Here we go I'm going to share my screen again Crime Patrol 2 drug wars An FMV Classic Now imagine like Some Tony Montana style cheesy villainy
Starting point is 00:31:56 Or imagine an ad An app with your name on it? An app with your name on it Jeff 44 This is like every ninja movie I've been watching in my office for last week. Dude, big time. Okay, why do you have to whisper it? Like, ASMR.
Starting point is 00:32:14 Oh, this is awesome. That's me and Nick. Why are we up here? Why are we down here? We need to be... You got to take on the narcotics king. Oh, James. Jeff, he's on a jet ski, this guy's flying out.
Starting point is 00:32:35 Oh, you're right, Andrew. This is like stunt people. This is like all they want to do. It's all just stunt shit. Oh, we can make this. This is literally all the bad guys from American Ninja 2. I just watched yesterday. That's phenomenal.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Why didn't rooster teeth make this? You tried. You tried to make this? Lopez what's going on we'll leave it there but yeah I've wanted for
Starting point is 00:33:09 like multiple years now to do videos and like these days I would that looked like a mega 64 video it sure did the same thing
Starting point is 00:33:16 yeah wow while we're doing all this emulating we should also remember that we should play 3D ultra minigolf too at some point
Starting point is 00:33:23 absolutely yeah yeah that's right lots of great old games and new games and the Joan Rivers game coming
Starting point is 00:33:30 in the mail. And the Joan River. How do VHS games work? Is it like you hit pause? I don't think I've ever played one. We're going to find that together. Oh, that'll be fun. Outside of that, are you guys playing anything?
Starting point is 00:33:42 I've been playing a lot of Arc Raiders. I've been playing, um, trying to get into the slot machine roguelike that just came out on GamePass. I, uh, figuring that out. I, uh, 100%ed ball pit and I'm now back on power simulator or power wash simulator too. I've been playing Arc Raiders on stream
Starting point is 00:34:02 It's a really fun game But it's fun in a stressful way You know, it's definitely not relaxing in any way So I'm in the market for a relaxing game right now Chill game What about you Gab and I thought you were playing Arc Raiders yesterday Yeah, just playing a little bit with Meg
Starting point is 00:34:15 Trying to get her into it What did Meg think of it I feel like there's There's a lot to take in on the first two games Oh absolutely So maybe we'll give it like five or six Before I get the official review I mean the first time we
Starting point is 00:34:30 played, Eric literally shot one of the boss enemies, not knowing there's a boss enemy, while we were attempting to extract immediately. Yeah. We put up two videos and then we did a stream and in the stream that came out before the second video, we're a lot more experience with it. But in the videos we recorded, I had no concept whatsoever that other players might be friendly. Oh, yeah. I thought it was like a game of HALA or it's like, well, obviously, I'm going to kill other people I see. I didn't know that was even a possibility in those videos Yeah, we wasted that guy as he was extracting
Starting point is 00:35:04 And he was really mad at us I feel bad about it Yeah, I feel bad about it too Because I never start on anyone in that game No, definitely I was talking to Andrew about it before we started recording Where it's like, Jeff's right, it's a super stressful game Like I really like it but it is really stressful
Starting point is 00:35:20 Especially when you get like blueprints Or something that you've been trying to get And then you run into people and you go I'm friendly all the time But what if they're not friendly right now and then you're like way guard up because you're like I have to extract with this stuff otherwise a huge waste of time that's why you got put it in your asshole yeah but my asshole can only fit so many things you know what I mean it's like when I got two
Starting point is 00:35:40 blueprints which blueprints bet which blueprints going up there is there is there an anus upgrade in that game oh oh I don't know I'm only on like the medium like stuff I'm not on the like an upgrade but like the different uh loadouts you can have there's some that let you have like three things like triple anus triple anus that would be like looter three or something probably I wonder if anyone has ever found
Starting point is 00:36:06 a skeleton like an archaeologist or whatever and they determine that like oh they were smuggling something in their anus based off the skeleton remains oh definitely you could tell if something was just like in the pelvis I think like yeah
Starting point is 00:36:22 like if there's like a gem ever been discovered with something up its anus. I mean, all the skeleton type stuff, I feel like is crazy because you hear like, oh, found the remains of whatever. What did you find,
Starting point is 00:36:40 Jeff? The first response just said, first preserved dinosaur butthole is perfect and unique. Oh, God, no. I can only hope that they say that about me when I pass. Oh, never mind.
Starting point is 00:36:54 That's good enough. Oh, Christ. dinosaur butthole I want to know we're talking about the boomer tech opinions or whatever I want to know if Nick has any boomer tech opinions because I feel like
Starting point is 00:37:06 Nick's in an in-between place where audio moves so fast and then stop so suddenly and there's ways that you do it and then ways that you don't anymore do you have any boomer tech opinions not even about audio Nick about audio I don't know
Starting point is 00:37:19 it doesn't have to be about audio just in general I was going to say everything is like so high tech these days and everybody has a mic at home and some kind of audio interface so it's all constantly evolving anyway but I'm kind of with Jeff on the whole
Starting point is 00:37:34 I don't really want to cast things to the TV I'm just so old now I will say if it is something that I have to particularly look up I'm like I'm not even going to bother watching that on the TV I'll just go watch it on my computer but like when ESPN wasn't on YouTube TV right I still had direct TV I think from my brother's login anyway
Starting point is 00:37:52 I would cast that to the TV and every time I did it I go to do something else like I was like I was listening to a podcast right while I was trying to do that and it would kick me off of the TV and put the podcast on it was like I want to watch this but I want to listen to this stop doing that so I'm just way out on the cast tech it's just it's too new for me I'm too old don't care I just like you just spend like it's one of those things where you go oh right this is a pot this this this thing is a thing that I can do it's an easy technology to use and then you spend three minutes mad at the world before you get it to work. Because it never works the same way twice. I think maybe the most boomer thing I do is that I use my inbox as my to-do list still. So like I have a note, you know, I have the notes app for creative notes for regulation stuff. But if I have something I need to do like I needed to call, I needed to email our lawyer today. I sent myself an email yesterday to remind myself to do it. And then when I get up in the morning, I just check my unread messages. And that's how I know what my day is. Jeff, I have one, I have one worse. And that is that any
Starting point is 00:38:55 time we have a draft or anything coming up, I make a draft in my emails and I just list it off in there and then I just save the draft. I definitely don't do that. That's like such a CIA tactic. Your draft is your clipboard. Like we are going to break into your like information somehow and you're like, no, I'll save it as a draft. They'll never find this anywhere.
Starting point is 00:39:18 Incredible. I don't know why. I just don't use the documents thing. I was just like, I can just access my email anywhere real quick, easy. Yeah. I guess I use how that works a lot for Nick, did we ever tell you all that time I wasted troubleshooting Eric's problem where he could only upload to our NAS at five megabytes? No, what was the solution?
Starting point is 00:39:38 What happened? Well, I was looking on my because we were all getting like 80, well, I was getting like 60 to 80 megabytes a second and Eric was stuck in five and I was like looking at the graph and like Jeff was up there. I was up there. And Eric was just like a slug at the bottom. And I was like, I was like trying to, I was like looking at ports. I was like trying to do all this stuff.
Starting point is 00:39:56 I was like white listing his devices. I just can't figure it out. And then it turns out, uh, he's on spectrum. Yeah, my internet's slow. Where the upload speed is capped at 40 megabits. Oh, yes. 40 megabits. Oh, rough.
Starting point is 00:40:11 It's five megabytes. Yep. Oh, it is so slow. It's like, oh, woof, boys. I must have wasted like three hours over the space of a week, just like trying different stuff. And it's just his dog. If you don't live in the U.S.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Spectrum is a absolutely dog shit. Dog shit. Absolutely dog shit. I hate it. Which advertises gigabit speeds, but it's only a gig down. Uh-huh. Oh,
Starting point is 00:40:34 wow. The up is capped. The up is capped at $40. Yep. That 40? Yep. Shit. So it was that is what's offered in my neighborhood.
Starting point is 00:40:44 Pretty cool stuff. Wow. 2025. That sucks. Brutal. Yeah, real sucks. Sucks for your line of work. You're telling me.
Starting point is 00:40:56 I have to deal with it. I'm sure for most people it's fine. Like when we upload a video, like when a gameplay's done, I just turn it on and upload it and then go, all right, well, I'm going to go do something else for an hour. Just like leave it. I just walk away. Drive it to the office. You stream from home. It works fine, right?
Starting point is 00:41:13 Yeah. Yeah. I have just enough where I can, like, I can stream. Like, my upload is just enough where I can, like, stream. And that's fine. Yep. because like AT&T was the other internet offered and that down is like 30 megs not I'm not talking gigs and that's down the up is like even smaller it's fucking crazy it's crazy that's just what's offered in my neighborhood it's brutal I feel like that's quite common all around the country but to be so close to the rest of Austin which is like eight gigabit fiber at the moment oh yeah oh I would love if they ran it in my neighborhood they never will but we could run a cable from my house to yours.
Starting point is 00:41:52 We might as well. Probably to be some degradation along. Yeah, but it'll probably still be faster than what the fuck I have, so who cares? It can't be more than 15 miles. Yep. It's a unique frustration internet stuff in Canada. Because I had
Starting point is 00:42:08 Shaw internet that got bought by Rogers and I have Rogers internet. And Rogers owns a lot of the sports franchises in the East. There will be times where I'm stuck using their shitty app that won't load that won't let me watch their thing when I'm trying to watch their own product and it makes it like a whole other level of just infuriating like I'm paying money to watch the thing to support
Starting point is 00:42:31 the thing that you own like this is a double level of ownership I'm trying to engage in just let me watch your stupid thing so annoying I love that I used to be so excited about software updates for stuff I'm like oh sweet what the new features and now if ever there's an update for something I'm just full of dread. I'm like, oh, which dog shit spyware are they going to put on this now? It's such a specific thing of, like, being disconnected. For me, I've been thinking a lot about five nights at Freddy's, because that second movie's coming out in, like, a week,
Starting point is 00:43:05 and I've never played those games, and I'm somebody who, like, is very aware of, like, gaming culture and, like, what games are coming out. I just have never engaged in that, and it's massive, and I just feel so left out of a, hobby that I'm so invested in. Have you seen the first Five Nights at Freddy's movie? Didn't see. I haven't engaged in
Starting point is 00:43:25 any Five Nights at Freddy's content. Is there something to do there? Because I'm in the same boat as you. I've never seen a second of the video game. I never watched any of the films. I know what it is through pop culture, but I have never seen a second
Starting point is 00:43:41 of the game, I don't think. Is there something that we could do there? I don't know. Is it a fun game? Is anyone, does anybody? Is it I think it was a big streamer game in like 2014? Yeah, I guess I didn't really care. Was it good game? Do you like it?
Starting point is 00:43:57 It's a very simple game. It's pretty scary, though. Yeah. Scary with headphones on. It was fun. I played it with Michael at Achievement Hunter. Was it fun or is it like content fun, if that makes sense? Yeah, I wouldn't play outside of work.
Starting point is 00:44:11 It's not really my bag. What about you, Nick? I feel like you're the horror guy when it comes to the games. That one was one I would. was never good at, but I always wanted to try to sit down and actually play it. Even the notion of like being good at five nights at Freddy's never occurred to me. I just don't. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:30 You have to like stop. You have to look at the cameras, right? Like, isn't that the mechanic? Like you're trying to. Yeah, you're watching cameras, but there's like a certain trick to it too where I guess certain things you do with the flashlight scares them off. You send like no, like some audio notifications to certain rooms that scare certain things off and then you have to shut the door.
Starting point is 00:44:48 And I was just like, I don't know which I'm supposed to do for what creature, so I'm going to die. It's just like learning how to get around each weird bastard in a suit or possessed suit whatever it is. For five nights? Five whole nights. Five whole nights. Did you? Okay.
Starting point is 00:45:07 What? How long is the game? Five nights. Doesn't seem like a human clock. Five real nights. Matthew Lillard is the final boss. in every game. Did you ever see Starfighter?
Starting point is 00:45:22 Is that the video game movie that he's in with Freddie Prince Jr? You mean Wing Commander? Wing Commander. Yeah, I always mix those two up because there are two things they never interact with. Never saw it. Never played Wing Commander either.
Starting point is 00:45:35 Wasn't my kind of game when I was growing up. Wing Commander is a poster I've seen all the time and I feel like it has to be absurd as a video game movie. I feel like they made that game in Austin, maybe. Really? I think so. That's cool. Have you seen Wing Commander, Gavin?
Starting point is 00:45:50 No, I've never heard of it. What's your favorite Matthew Lillard movie, Gavin? I want to get to the bottom of this with you. This is Andrew gets to the bottom of it with Gavin. I think I've only seen him in Scream. You didn't see the Scooby-Doo movies? Nah. I heard, I heard Matt Hollum worked on those movies.
Starting point is 00:46:10 What movies? Scooby-Doo. Oh, he did, yeah. The first one. I don't think he did the second one. That's an interesting choice. I guess he didn't probably make the choice. Which one I did scrappy Scrappy Zilla or whatever he made that
Starting point is 00:46:29 He worked on scrappy Zilla. That's the part everyone hates Yeah, I was always a scrappy guy people do hate that but I liked them I went into after we talked about it yesterday why Vindiesel wasn't in triple X2 and the reason is apparently he didn't like the script Which I think is bullshit. I don't believe it. I think that's a conspiracy Because the triple X1 script isn't art. Like, features the line, don't be a dick, dick. Like what, at what state? Like, what about the sequel?
Starting point is 00:47:01 Well, isn't it a thing where, like, he's like, I'm going to do this thing. And then they kept doing Fast and Furious movies. And then he went, well, fuck this. I'm going to go do that instead. No, I think he, apparently you just said no to the script that he wasn't interested. Sure he did. That's why he did pitch, no, not pitch perfect.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Pitch perfect. That's why he said pitch perfect. Ben Diesel and pitch perfect. Oh, wow. Just continuing his songs of the summer. His one album. I guess not even an album. Does he have an album or is it just a single?
Starting point is 00:47:31 I don't know. I don't think I've heard any other Vin Diesel songs. I just like the one. He's kind of famously difficult, though, right? Wasn't there that one movie he was in where he refused to show his biceps because he saves his biceps for Vin Diesel movies? and that was a big thing. I haven't heard that, but that is awesome.
Starting point is 00:47:50 Yeah, that was, uh, I'll find the movie. You guys keep talking. So it's just, he just has singles, but feel like I do is the one. And I love that cover so goddamn much. Fuck, I love that album cover. It's just his dumb fucking smiling face with like four Instagram filters on top of it. Incredible. Incredible.
Starting point is 00:48:11 God damn. He's such a fun, incompetent actor that is, I love that he's best friends with Michael Kane. Is that true? Yeah, they're super close. They love each other. I guess they met at like some party or something and now every time either of them or like
Starting point is 00:48:28 if Michael Kane is in New York or Vindiesel is in London, they get dinner together. Michael Kane has like a whole chapter in his book dedicated to how much he loves Vindiesel. Which is why I think Michael Kane is coming out of retirement to act in the last witch hunter too. Because it's a
Starting point is 00:48:46 Vin Diesel movie, and that's like his guy. Dude, I watched that movie the other day. Whoa. It's so bad. I don't remember anything about it, but I love Vin Diesel only tries to make franchises at this stage of his career, and it's so funny when they flop, or they're just like, why?
Starting point is 00:49:06 Who is this for? Michael Kane is 92 years old. It's coming out for Last Witch Hunter, too. The Last Witch Hunter has Vin Diesel with hair and a beard and it looks fucking ridiculous. And it's awesome. He's an immortal witch hunter who must stop a plague from ravaging
Starting point is 00:49:24 the entire world. And to be clear, this is his D&D character. It is a film about his D&D character. That is exactly what this is. He made $147 million worldwide. That is more than I would have guessed. That's way too much for how bad this movie is. It's, I
Starting point is 00:49:40 like, I'm having fun with like a bad movie or whatever. I was watching this just going like, dude, like no fucking way. Like get this out of it had the first one had Michael Kane and Elijah Wood in it and then a bunch of other people Kurt Angle was in it cool awesome so you know it's good yeah Kurt Angle has an interesting film career oh Rose Leslie she was the what's her face you know nothing John Snow Game of Thrones oh yeah she was in it too he fights witches is the whole thing can you believe it and he's the last of them he has a lot of movies that are like
Starting point is 00:50:15 he's the guy he's the he's the hero type bloodshot was another one what is your favorite vin diesel movie or franchise i mean immediately i want to say triple x talked about that so much though um it might be triple x because he gets to i've i know i've talked about on this show but it's
Starting point is 00:50:35 it's where he gets to be sherlock homes and it's so stupid in the best way we should have a draft of movies that are actually other movies like how the Rock is actually a James Bond film yeah dude movies that are other movies draft yeah I love it
Starting point is 00:50:53 but people who couldn't get into the actual franchise they want so they just make a different one Indiesville is almost 60 Is he really? Crazy 58 Pulling up his IMDB I want to analyze this
Starting point is 00:51:06 I'm sure it's not his best movie or anything but I feel I just have such positive memories of pitch black I should go back and watch it again because I remember really loving it when it came out It's a fun, like, horror action movie. And you can stop there as far as the Wittaker. Yeah, I never saw Chronicles of Riddick or... You don't need to.
Starting point is 00:51:21 There was. I think there may be working on a fourth. Look, I'm looking at his career. Fast and Furious, obviously. Bloodshot was horrific. I saw that movie. I like that you're the only person I feel like when I pull up these obscure Vindiesel things
Starting point is 00:51:37 that it's like, ah, Eric's probably seen this. I like, I like a, I like a dumb action movie that isn't trying to be way, way, way more than it really needs to be and Bloodshot felt like that. Also, TPG, that was an easy guy to talk to these movies about.
Starting point is 00:51:52 You know what I mean? That's true. I remember, he's in a movie called Find Me Guilty. That's apparently very good, but he has hair in it and it blew me away. What movie?
Starting point is 00:52:01 It's called Find Me Guilty. Hmm. And I remember seeing it in Blockbuster as a kid came out and me being like, whoa, he's a serious actor. Is that his real hair? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:52:14 I don't think so. I don't know. I just seem to know. It looks like a wig. Wallnuts. I shoot you cuffs, kid. What the fuck? I've never seen it.
Starting point is 00:52:29 But it's just the Vin Diesel hair movie is what it's known as in my brain. Well, his first movie was Awakening's. He was uncredited Hospital Orderly. Oh, that's a sad movie. Yeah, it is. And then he was back. Bounce are uncredited in New Jack City. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 00:52:45 Is Awakening's the one where they die and then come back to see if the afterlife is real? It has nothing to do with the afterlife. That's, uh, what, when they're like shocking each other back to life and stuff? Yeah, flatliners. Flatliners. Oh, yeah. They remade that movie. It did.
Starting point is 00:53:04 I saw it. I thought it could be Awakening's. Awakening's could be the title of that movie. I think Awakens is the sad, shocked awake. like people are ill and then they get a drug and they get like reanimated almost
Starting point is 00:53:15 yeah well I think it's based on a true story right where there's people with this certain disease that renders them comatose and then they tried some drug or something
Starting point is 00:53:24 and everybody woke up but it was temporary and then they all went back to sleep and they've never figured out why or how to get them to wake up again crazy oh god
Starting point is 00:53:32 yeah I don't think they were necessarily asleep but they were just like inside comatose again yeah and and it launched the career of one Vin Diesel as uncredited orderly number four
Starting point is 00:53:46 you launched his career that's interesting as I'm thinking about this the Awakening's and Flatliners I think there are a lot of movies you can trick people into thinking their other movies if they start it late yeah the turning
Starting point is 00:54:02 of the screw I thought was totally different when I was a little kid I'm thinking even like if somebody walked five minutes into die hard you could probably tell them the movie's called The Terminator. And unless they had an awareness of the Terminator, it would make sense. Just start lying and saying that John McLean's a robot from the future.
Starting point is 00:54:19 But you don't even need to do that. Oh. I feel like it could just be called the Terminator. He's terminating, dude. I feel like you do that to any person with any movie that they walk into five minutes late. Like, I don't know what Tommy Knockers is, but if I came into it late, you could lie to me about whatever Tommy Knockers is probably.
Starting point is 00:54:36 Just based on the name, it's like, it seems so specific, but so vague. So you kind of do that. Yeah, I think, would there be, if you came five minutes into Die Hard, would there be any movie that you couldn't lie and say it is? Or like, Sound of Music or something? You probably wouldn't buy it. Yeah, that'd be a tough one. You'd probably be looking for saving Private Ryan.
Starting point is 00:54:57 You'd be like, where's Private Ryan? He'd be like, Where's Private Ryan? He must be up the skyscraper. Is he one of the people? It's kind of weird that they never meet Private Ryan if he's trying to save them. Seems way more about his wife. Interstellar would be a tough sell. but die-hard
Starting point is 00:55:12 I feel like there are people that would just think like that's a fancy title sounds fancy interstellic because I'm thinking about because like Inception is also
Starting point is 00:55:26 a very similarly styled title true true sort of the idea more so I think it would be funnier though of like
Starting point is 00:55:35 the water boy feeling that die hard as the water boy you just expect him to set off the sprinklers any moment that's his superhero ability he's the water boy
Starting point is 00:55:49 I was thinking the other night about how Emily has the whole like sleep procedure and equipment that she has to go through and how Andrew also has a bunch of specifics pillow arrangement who do you think has the more expensive sleep
Starting point is 00:56:04 set up between Andrew and Emily oh it's got to be Andrew right the CPAP alone is got to be expensive Oh, yeah Well, I think that's less of a preference So that's more of a necessity That's a requirement, yeah But one of those pillows and it's like
Starting point is 00:56:18 He incorporated the spaghetti at one point Yeah, spaghetti was good Like how much money aside from CPAP Have you put into your kips? You got the eye mask, you got The thing with the pillows, though, is that like A lot of them are over a decade old Oh, so
Starting point is 00:56:40 I feel like the value shifts, right? Could you go ahead and throw them away today? Pillars aren't typically buy it for life. When do you guys get rid of pillows? I feel like sometimes you change a you change a pillar case and you just look at the pillow and you're just like, ah, this one's done. Yeah. I don't think I've ever done that.
Starting point is 00:57:01 When you get to a point where you got to like shake it to one side to get enough pillow to use. What about your undies? Do you ever put on a pair and think, this is probably the last time I'm wearing these. Huh. If you've never done, just in general, if you've never done a full sock and undie refresh,
Starting point is 00:57:20 I recommend trying it at least once in your life. It's nice. Just go in your drawer. Well, buy new underwear and socks first. When they come in, then just go in your drawer and donate all your old or throw it away if it's super gross or whatever. And then just switch it out and it's a real nice.
Starting point is 00:57:34 It's a nice present for yourself. I use these things until they're functionally non-usable anymore. And then I move on. So until your nuts burst through, you're going to keep wearing some boxes? Yeah. Do you have any boxes from the 2000s? No.
Starting point is 00:57:51 Are you a boxers guy? Yeah, but I'll, uh, yeah, uh, boxer briefs. Boxer briefs, yeah. And I'll buy them like every once in a while. I'll just add in a new mix. Like it'll just be like, you know, I can use that. You use a new mix. It's always the same type, though.
Starting point is 00:58:05 So it's not, it's not like I got new exciting design. in the rotation everything looks the same I mean maybe you're like maybe you treat your boxes like I treat my technology that I don't want to waste I think I really don't want to
Starting point is 00:58:19 oh maybe I think they I think they should be wasted I think if you've worn a pair of boxes 180 times I think they're yeah you guys should put a lot of this stuff on the curb like leave it to the outdoors to the elements Gavin should listen to the advice he's giving Andrew a little bit too yeah
Starting point is 00:58:35 the only time I swap out of pillows if it rips and there's like feathers everywhere Every pillow I've gotten rid of The feathers have shot everywhere And I can't literally is unusable Yeah So that's how old they are They still have feathers in them
Starting point is 00:58:50 I guess yeah I definitely have some feather ones Don't you find though That when like somebody gives you underwear Or socks as a gift That your drawer gets too full If you don't get rid of some old stuff To make room for the new stuff
Starting point is 00:59:02 I feel like I'm constantly Anything new comes in Something old has to go out in my house That is a great way to live I don't think about it in that way I just don't have the space to not I'll just find a new place I don't have like a locked in drawer
Starting point is 00:59:16 I don't have a drawing cabinet you should put all your underwear and socks in your filing cabinet oh yeah I don't have yeah I don't know if I had the room what if today you throw away one pair I'd have to scout and find which one I guess is the least deserving I'd give it a
Starting point is 00:59:32 I don't even know if I give it is I would say if it's got a hole in it you should get rid of it. Yeah, it's got to go. Okay. Any sock or underwear that has a hole should go. Socks, here's the, I got socks for days. I don't wear socks unless I have to.
Starting point is 00:59:50 That's an optional thing, and I've got a lot of socks, so it's, I'm doing fine in that department. So you must have socks from the 2000s? Almost certainly, yeah. Because surely your, your mom was and buy your socks. Well, no, I got rid of all, I got rid of all of my socks in like mid, mid, the late 2010s and I just bought a whole bunch of the same sock. Get a big pudge. So just do that right now
Starting point is 01:00:14 with underwear. Yeah. I don't need to. Then do it right now with pillow. If you're telling me I can get more pillow in. No, you get new pillow and pillow out. Is that what you're saying? Get pillow, pillow bigger. Get pillow, pillow bigger, get rid of old pillow. Yeah. Pillow out. I like that.
Starting point is 01:00:37 I've been putting together my Christmas list and that has me feeling like an old man You got pillows on there? I don't have pillows on there I have like tweezers on there I have
Starting point is 01:00:47 Tweeders are Gummy vitamins If you want them they are Tweezers are for Christmas I don't like Gavin tell you what is and isn't for Christmas I'm trying to think of stocking Stuffers has asked
Starting point is 01:00:58 for like a stocking stuffer type thing Oh so for not for you Well for me What do you mean? For his stocking Are you listening? I don't Why are you picking what's in your stocking?
Starting point is 01:01:10 Well, I was asked, what are some things that you would want? So it's not just stuff I don't want. He doesn't know he's getting tweezers. He just knows he asked for them. I compiled a list of things. I don't know which of these things I will receive. I receive some of them or none of them. I will be equally happy.
Starting point is 01:01:28 But I've created a list. Why are you telling Santa what you want? Yeah. How do you think this works, Gavin? Just like the idea of you having a splint. And being like, another month. Just got to wait it out. Andrew, what was last time you had a splinter?
Starting point is 01:01:50 Oh, man, I became irrationally afraid of splinters. In my teens, I would say. I think there was an episode of Family Guy, maybe. Somebody gets a splinter and it gets infected. I saw it as a kid, or a teenager, probably older than I should have been, in terms of being like I want to avoid those
Starting point is 01:02:08 so I can't tell you the last time it's more like I've stepped on glass it's a lot more common than six because sometimes you break like a picture frame or something and you think you got it all and then six months later you'll step somewhere and I'll just be like
Starting point is 01:02:25 oh my God sucks what is your oldest article of clothing Gavin? Probably a caboose shirt Do you think about it? Like rooster teeth merch? He's still wear a caboose shirt? No, I don't...
Starting point is 01:02:45 I mean, I've got it still. I don't wear it. Should I wear it today? Yeah, wear it today. Let's throw Bernie a bone. He could use it, I'm sure. Wear it in some merch and some content, so we could throw some... I just got that really, like, old mothbally smell to the point where there's
Starting point is 01:03:05 There's no way I could wear it without washing it first, but I'm worried the washing machine would just tear it to shreds at this point. I'm not a big caboose guy these days. But 2003. So you, so that shirt might be from like 2005 or six. Wow. No, it's from like, when was the first run of shirts? I thought it was 2003 or four. 2003, 2004, probably.
Starting point is 01:03:34 Yeah, it's from then. some from that run so oh wow i remember that's pretty old 20 years i remember being in the seventh grade with joint desks and explaining a caboose joke to the table and it's the like one of the most embarrassed i've ever felt just complete regret just explaining red versus blue in this joke to three people that couldn't have cared less but don't even like Halo, never mind Andrew's like, no, time is a circle, that's my clock's around
Starting point is 01:04:10 get it? That's crazy. What was the joke? Do you remember? I have no memory of that. I've tried to repress those memories. I've done the same thing with my roostroof-death experience. That's fair. I'm just now getting Abba back. I lost Abba in like the fifth grade. I'm now
Starting point is 01:04:31 Oh yeah, because of that performance. performance, exactly. Yeah, but now I'm like, it doesn't bother me. I think that's a nice feature of the brain is that when you embarrass the shit out of yourself, your brain just starts like patching it up and like hiding it from you to the point where you're like,
Starting point is 01:04:48 I either don't remember that at all or do I even remember the full extent of the embarrassment? That was like a weird, negative consequence of what I started using CPAP and I could actually sleep and I was dreaming and doing things of I was having dreams of past trauma
Starting point is 01:05:06 that I didn't realize was still bothered me in some way and I was like, oh shit, I guess I've just been dealing with these internally that I haven't been able to like remember. And that wasn't even your brain trying to repress that stuff. Your brain was trying to get to it but you were never sleeping long enough to get to it.
Starting point is 01:05:25 It's wild. Maybe that's why you were sleeping like shit. You were doing it to yourself so you could never dream about the trauma. I don't think I just think my body sucks I think it's just a bad I'm just bad at being a body
Starting point is 01:05:40 which you Because I used to fall sleep in the top all the time And I realized it's because I was getting no sleep ever I was always tired Yeah I think if you're falling asleep Outside of your bed You need to fix something somewhere But I thought I was just really comfortable
Starting point is 01:05:55 And that's not the case I was just very sleep deprived I mean people get really comfortable While they're driving it but it never ends well if you could if you could upgrade one piece of your body what would you go for
Starting point is 01:06:09 oh I mean immediately you'd think ankles right but I'm kind of okay with that I've learned to live with shit ankles let's say that you can spend you can spend 10 grand for a complete brand new replacement of one body part oh man
Starting point is 01:06:23 so it's like it's gonna leave a dent you gotta make it count let me uh hmm Can I like be in Spector Gadget with this? Or is it like, I'm just improving. What, you're gonna have like a robot elbow or something? Like an extended arm.
Starting point is 01:06:41 No, it's just a, it's just one that works. When Spider-Man first came out, the Toby McGuire one, if I was laying down and I was really comfortable, I didn't want to get out to grab something. I tried to shoot a web. Like, listen. No. Quadrillion to one shot.
Starting point is 01:07:00 chance that this works. Gav, why don't you give him an example? What would you upgrade in Gavre? Please, for the love of God, give him an example. Okay, so say every morning, morning when you wake up, you stand up with your hip pops, and it really hurts. You can just get a new hip that doesn't do that. I don't have anything like that, really.
Starting point is 01:07:16 Your bodies are perfect, well-o-o-o-o machine. Like, I'm not like, no. Smaller head? No, I'm okay with this. He's not getting a smaller head. He's getting a new head. Awesome. I think I would get maybe a new collarbone
Starting point is 01:07:33 It's insane because you you've told us in the past that your intestines are dog shit Yeah, but I don't I don't know if that's like a butthole problem or if that's like an intestine problem I'd definitely go for a new colon I'm a heart I just don't know I don't know like does that make sense where if you've got six holes in a wall if you patch one I don't know if it fixes the problem? Fixed one.
Starting point is 01:08:00 Fixes that hole. That's true. You struggle more with your collarbone than you do with your own. No, I have no issue with my collarbone. Can I see a question, Andrew? Can I see a question? Yeah. Would you rather have six holes in a wall or five holes in a wall?
Starting point is 01:08:13 Yeah, good question. And so big the wall is, if I'm being honest. No, it doesn't. I mean, to be honest, six is the same as five when it comes to wall holes. I don't know. You can't get the four until you get to five. It's a process. He's got a point.
Starting point is 01:08:27 I guess I just never really think about my collarbone. So why do you want a new one? Because I'd like to see how it feels if I'd still not think about it or if like it would feel better. Like maybe it's bad and I don't know it. You would spend 10 grand on something that you don't ever feel to see if you would feel. Okay. Well, I forgot that I'm spending money on this. If I'm spending money on this, then I'm absolutely picking the least fun option and going with the gut.
Starting point is 01:08:53 I'm doing some gut replacements. I'm doing intestinal. Yeah, I think that's a wise move Yeah, I'd swap out the intestine But I don't understand I don't understand how collarbone is a fun Choice Well, because like I feel like it stabilizes the shoulders
Starting point is 01:09:08 I feel like it probably does more than I think about Well, a collarbone is a notoriously nasty recovery If you break it I can understand a lot of people saying collarbone If they've previously broken it To say collarbone because it's never had any effect On your life is absolutely insane Right, well,
Starting point is 01:09:25 there are other problems for like my left shoulder doesn't really fully function the way I'd want it to, but I don't know what I would be fixing in that. Is that your shoulder? You can say, yeah, but there's so many parts of the shoulder. And you think collarbone is the fix? I mean, I don't know if it would hurt.
Starting point is 01:09:42 Like where do you think the shoulder? Is it like where your arm socket is or is it like your shoulder blade? Is it like on the top of your shoulder? It's like the socket into kind of like the bicep is where I've historically had problems. Socket to bicep. Yeah. Like it pops a lot.
Starting point is 01:10:00 What bone is that? Like your rotator cuff area? So when I was, I injured it when I was like probably 15 or 16 and it would be like a thing where I couldn't, if I laid flat on my back, it would hurt, but I wouldn't feel any pain in any other way. And then I think I maybe further dislocated it. And then I popped it back in. And it's been fine since then. But it feels a little, like it's a little crackly. We need to get Andrew Tommy John.
Starting point is 01:10:25 surgery. Oh, maybe. I never pitched, though. Well, you will now. Yeah, you're the starter. Get out there. Get on the mound. What are you fixing, Jeff, for 10 grand on your... Oh, on my body? I'm fixing my butt hole, for sure. I'm getting rid of diverticulitis.
Starting point is 01:10:41 So I don't... I would like to not have to take Miralex every day of my life without break for fear of pain, and I would like to not make a Jackson Pollock four times a day in like, well, look. I would like to not. I would like to not be in a position where I use a toilet scrubber
Starting point is 01:10:57 more than a fork, you know? Oh, God. I don't like that comparable. I used that in a couple previous episodes. I used that a while ago in this podcast, so I brought it back up. Is there a toilet that sits in a state of constant flow while you're using it?
Starting point is 01:11:15 Can you Jackson Pollock a wet, flowing toilet? No, I don't think you can. Yes, if it's forceful enough. Yeah, I did. Jeff takes it as a challenge I definitely could I would argue that I have yeah
Starting point is 01:11:30 we should wrap up can I pitch a product before we do speaking of bathroom stuff I think hydrophobic bog spray oh I'm not opposed to that
Starting point is 01:11:40 this is my idea my product idea a bath bomb but it cleans think about that ooh it's not for you it's for the bath
Starting point is 01:11:51 wow that's a great idea does it work I don't know I don't know how that stuff works. Don't dirty up for me nearly as much as a sink or a toilet. No, but it would just be nice. Like, you got to clean it.
Starting point is 01:12:05 You probably shit in the bath a lot less than you shit in the toilet. Yeah. That's true. Yeah. Hopefully. Factual statement. I hope so. I hope so.
Starting point is 01:12:14 I hope so. I'm actually what Vin Diesel's next action movie is about. It's called The Toilet Shitter. Michael Kane is coming back again. He can't quit, Vin. and his toilet shitting. What are Michael Cain's new body part of be? What do what Michael Cain's shits look like at 92?
Starting point is 01:12:35 I have a question for you, Jeff. All right, let's do it. Are you allergic to wrapping up? No kidding. You know what's interesting to me about that? Is that there are five people on this podcast. Yeah, but you do the intro. You do the intro.
Starting point is 01:12:48 You also like the outro. How many episodes? Absolutely. Absolutely. just the absolute glut, just the absolute glut of how many you do. Oh, I don't feel like doing it today. Somebody else do it. Take it away, Gavin.
Starting point is 01:13:00 Gavin. Thanks for what. Oh, I was going to do it. No, you do it. I just am surprised he threw the ball to you because you very vocally are like, I don't like doing these things. Oh, dog shit. Watch this.
