I'm Dave, and saving with TD Insurance made me feel like I scored my own jingle. With over 30 ways to save, nobody seems like Dave. Save on home and auto like only you can at tdinurance.com slash ways to save. TD. Ready for you. Hello and welcome to a- Hello and welcome to the first ep- What?

I mean, don't swear right at the gate. I mean, that doesn't help us. Oh, wait, wait, wait. Mickey. Sh*****. A*****. D, that doesn't help. Oh, wait, Mickey. Sh**. Dumb. No, shut up. If you swear at the beginning, it hurts us algorithmically. And I need you to know that it hurts us algorithmically.

There's no company, Andrew. It hurts us. We are the ones who are hurt by this. We're like that dude in the Da Vinci Code who hits himself in the back with a rope ball because he loves to practice self-flagellation. You know what I mean? The thing is, how do you flagellate? You hit yourself in the back with a ball. Oh, yeah. I thought I explained it right at the gate.

I guess I've been flagellated a lot, but by other people. Well, that's you. Yeah, you've been other people flagellated, not self- flagellated a lot by other people. Well, that's you. Yeah, you've been other people flagellated, not self-flagellated. Got it. What do we do it, Jeff? Should we start it? Yeah. Hello. God. Hello and welcome to the inaugural episode of the regulation podcast.

This is episode number one. My name is Jeff Ramsey with me, as always. Andrew Panton, Gavin Free, Nick Schwartz and Eric Badour. Was all that other stuff cut? I don't know what happened to the other stuff. That's an editor thing. Oh, well, it's just definitely call attention to it in case it was cut though Why and because it's important because this is a new show technically uh and

We only get one opportunity the first person to say certain things, but you just said Da Vinci. That's a great word You're the first use of Da Vinci on the show. I was trying to plant the shit flag back flip China shop I was trying to plant the shit flag back flip China shop Trying shops good, I don't think I would ever got the China shop though I don't think anyone said China shop in 206 slash 205 episodes of fuckface I would love to know if anybody said back flip China shop or Da Vinci in the last 206 episodes back flip had to have come up probably how many times though at least? At least twice. I would say I'll be honest. I was very tempted to call a blindside 16 seconds into this recording, but Andrew went in so heavy with the but but but but but but that I felt like

That would be that would have been too much. I don't believe you because you never played your blindside last time. This will be the first blindside you've used. I was going to play it just now, you fool. Are we resetting all the blindsides? Well, that's a question. Are we resetting all the rules in general? Do we have blindsides? That was a fuckface thing. This is regulation. Does it carry over? Yeah, so we should say to first-time listeners, first-time discoverers of this podcast,

we did 205 episodes of a previous podcast. Yeah, we, we, well, we record, we made it to episode 206, but we recorded 205. Right. And, uh, and then we all lost our jobs. So now we're doing it again with a different name. And the listeners, the regulation listeners have been, well, I guess the comment leavers have been asking very important questions. Does their comment leaver status get reset?

And I think it does. I do too. I think if you haven't left a comment yet on regulation podcast, you can retain regulation listener status for as long as you want. Now here's the thing. We are five way business owners here, so we all get a vote. I vote that they are still comment leavers. Oh, I say status remains.

So we have two for reset, one for remain. Yeah, I still vote that it's a clean. It's a fresh slate. Yeah, I think it's a reset. I think three and Nick said Nick said, I think so as well. So it's four to one majority rules. That's what that's fine. I got no problem. All right. Congratulations, everyone. Who is you? Literally all of you right now. As of this recording, you are all regulation listeners. But I would say there is something

to be said for people who blow it in the first in the comments of the first episode If you want to trade in immediately for comment lever, I think there's that I think that's honorable. Yeah, so we'll see what happens I wonder who I don't even know how we would determine it, but I wonder who the very first comment lever will be hobby very first comment leaver will be hobby. OK, that's a very, very, very, very, very old reference from like two companies ago. At this point, I don't even know if you could say hobby. That might be Warner. I mean, at this point, we can't make that joke.

Do we can we even talk about what IP we do. we do own at this point now that we're recording this? Nope. Well, we can't. We can't say I guess we should have our I.P. currently. You're right. We shouldn't. Yeah, we're in the process of working all that out. There you go. We're figuring it out. I think the fact that we're on a different feed is an indication of that. I don't think there's anything wrong saying we're working on it and we we are hoping to soon.

Yeah, we're working in good faith with other people who are working in good faith. Hey, I wanted to do something a little special because this is an inaugural episode. So I I've been working on something in the background, something I kind of teased in the past. I proposed as an idea. I won't say how long ago, but, you know, somewhere in the last two hundred and six, two hundred and five episodes. And I would like I don't I think I should just give it to you guys and let you all like sync up and play it yourselves.

But I prepared a little file that I think I think you guys might be interested in. You've got a clip. I got a clip. Yeah, it's an audio file. I'll wait for a file. It's not a file. Let'll wait for a dong file. It's not a dong file. Let me find it as a quick aside. Yeah. OK. Happy sunshine day dot wav.

This is a 20 megabyte file that is less than a minute. Fifty five seconds long. OK, OK. I'm going to I'm going to play in three, two, one. Oh, come on. Oh, no. Okay, okay, I'm gonna. I'm gonna play in three two one oh Come on Come on. Oh, it's so loud, too. Oh, you know why it's loud cuz it sounds like a waterfall it works Hang on It sounds like a water feature Eric yells at me for saying shit at the first 30 seconds of the show,

and Jeff is just sharing 55 seconds of piss. Yeah, but algorithmically, that's not going to get picked up on. You know what I mean? You don't think the AI is listing out for piss? No. Oh, now we get to hear the dribbles. Oh, they go for so long. Please listen. I prepared this specially for you. Jeff, this is I find this deeply disturbing in a way. I did not anticipate excellent I

Hate this I had to look at Gavin's vagina last week alright you guys can that's what I was gonna say Did you expect that photo to be out Gavin did anyone run that by you? I was shocked that that made it so the yeah, he said it in the in the episode. He didn't care I was shocked that that made it into the. Yeah, he said it in the in the episode. He didn't care. OK, so anyway, for the audience, I had my supposition in the previous podcast was that if you recorded yourself peeing and then laid the urine tracks over each other enough, you could eventually make a sound

that essentially sounds like Niagara Falls, right? Just like a raging waterfall. What you guys just listened to was just 11 peas. Wow. Well, it sounded like a kind of a fancy water feature, like something like a fountain. I really hated the starting and stopping. Imagine 89 more peas laid on top of that. Imagine 100 urans all stacked together and auditioned and played at the same time.

It would this the it would be insane. And then that's where we're headed. That's what that's my next goal. I'm going to get to 100. How long do you think it would take you to get to 100? Dude, I've been recording them since I since I proposed that to you guys that day. And you'd be amazed at how many how many recordings just don't work out. That's that's the 11.

That's the good takes. How do you mess up a piss? You have your fucking thumb over the mic so it doesn't sound good or too far away from the toilet or you're pissing in a public urinal and it's like you're trying to do it on the down low. Those are all in my house. Every one of those is in my house.

Every one of those was in my house. What? And then a lot, I'll be honest, a lot of times I don't remember to record Thumb over the mic like a grandma on FaceTime Why are you trying to record it in public? Well, I'm not always Because you know what I let a good piss go to waste man You mentioned going into a bathroom and seeing a guy standing at a urinal with headphones on and a fucking boom mic

Well if he's got like the boom he's not got any hands on his go God He's gonna be free swinging of all the things. I think we've done on the show Jeff This is the thing that has made me the most nauseous. I think oh you actually feel sick Yeah, I actually I don't know something about that. I just the sound, just the sound of Russian water, man. I'm trying to think of a design of something like where you could hold a boom mic and from the end of the boom mic would be like a hammock of fabric that you could rest your penis in and potentially steer the penis and the boom mic together. If you could design that in such a way so that you can flip it around to the back to catch farts,

I'll pay you $500 for that. Well, I don't think flipping it quickly whipping the boom around to the back would yank your penis pretty severely, I think. You gotta figure out something in the design, though, because the hardest thing in the world... I wish I could have my butt. I wish to God I could have my butt mic'd constantly. I miss so many farts or the act of like trying to get a phone to your butt to record the fart ruins the fart. Like I've eaten a lot of farts just in like the process of trying to record them.

Really? Well, maybe a double ended boom mic then a lot of farts. That's that's an interesting idea. Double ended boom mic, like a boom halo that sits kind of around your midsection with microphones pointed at your dick and your ass. Feel like stereo for a giant. Yeah, yeah, kind of. Anyway, I'll be back when I get another 89 solid pisses recorded and then we'll see if it really does sound like Niagara Falls

But I'm pretty impressed with what only 11 peas sounds like I'm surprised. Yeah, that's pretty effective Yeah, yeah, it was I it was overpowering I think I'm more of a fart recording guy If I had to pick between one or the two if I had to support one of your endeavors a more fart Now here's where the farts more. Here's the beauty of that Andrew. You don't have to pick. I'm more fart. Now, here's where the farts more. Here's the beauty of that, Andrew. You don't have to pick. I'm going to do both regardless. That's that's fair.

So you get the benefit. You get the benefit of both either way. It'd be really funny if we eventually do another vinyl way down the road, if there is like a track of just a looping fart of your like the whole rotation of the disk is just different farts and it just plays in a nonstop loop. If you put it in that grid, if you want it because, you know, the goal with the farts for me is to release an audiobook online called A Thousand and One Farts, right. And it's just those parts.

If we could then press those onto vinyl, I think that's a great company piece for the audiobook. And vinyl is highly collectible, I mean, as is evidenced by our previous podcast. I'm looking at a blue and a white version of the fuckface episode 16 vinyl on my desk right now, and they're just gorgeous. I can't wait to get back to that. Yeah, they're really nice.

What's the quickest before we leave the bathroom really quick? What's the quickest, most unexpected issue you've had in the bathroom? Have you ever have you ever had any accidents that were not necessarily toilet? Like, have you fallen? You ever fallen in a bathroom before? Oh, I think I sneezed myself off the bog once. How like diagonally? I think I sneezed myself off the bog once. How? Like, diagonally?

Where did you go? I sneezed, like I jolted forwards, and then I started to rock forwards, so I tried to like hike my legs upwards to try and clamp the ball, but it was too slick, and I just slid and I just fell face first. And I really made a mess of my cheeks. I clenched up real good. Oh God.

When was that? I would say 2008 maybe. That wasn't one of my houses was it? No. How many you got? Right now one, but you lived with me at different points in different places. No, I didn't. I didn't like shoot feces up into the air.

I think it was all contained. God, because of height, because I've said sort of effective clench. That is so much worse than I was imagining. I think I told this story on this very podcast about how I fell through the I sat on a toilet that fell through the floor once in the army. But I also woke up in a lot of bathrooms back in my heavy drinking days. So I definitely have passed out in a lot of bathrooms and I've and I guess didn't hit anything too dangerous because I never woke up bloody, but yeah, I definitely woke up on the floor and wondered how I got there a bunch. Where did you wake up after you huffed all the gasoline?

After I helped out again that time in the army. Yes, I mean there was a lot of gas in my eyes I Woke up in the back of a pickup truck being taken to the hospital. Oh man Yeah Not too much simpler life would have been if I just never woke up. Oh, what do you mean? For you? I just would have avoided all this. Yeah.

It's something to think about. My whole life would be completely different. I would live somewhere else. It might be really good. It might be really good. I the other day, I woke up, I went uh, the other day I woke up. I went to use the bathroom like this is immediately I start my day, wake up, go into the bathroom and the act of getting ready to sit on the toilet, my left foot slid like it was just it slid across the floor.

I fell down knees first. Are you still facing the toilet at this point? My back is to the toilet. So you're back. You're like about to squat. I'm about to squat. And then my left foot just slides unexpectedly. And I immediately go down and I'm not expecting it. Go knees first.

Head into that waste basket that I told you about. That I put my foot in before. And it was just it was shocking. And it was the most unexpected way to start a day. And I just had that moment of like removing my head from my waste basket going. What do I how do I go on from here? And do I just go back to bed? Like, what is this?

Did it smell like foot? It didn't. It didn't smell like anything. It's just I'm so glad it's empty and nobody uses it. It would be it would have been real gross potentially, but it was just head in basket. So you are you are hanging dong at this point. Yes. Hanging dong full on side splits, legs drop, head forward right into the wooden waist mask. I definitely would have gone back to bed. What a ludicrous Lou, just try again.

That's a mulligan on the whole day. It was such a surprise. None of it hurt like it was just a totally like I didn't feel any pain of falling. It was just shock. You didn't pull any muscles or anything. You know, muscles pulled. Wow. Yeah, it's just I got back up and I sat on the toilet and I thought, what the fuck? What is today?

What is happening? You just unlocked a memory of me that I probably haven't thought of in 20 years before back before RT. But when I was still living in Austin, when I like when I first started working the tech center and I was like, I think I was living with Gus at the time. I had my very first house. One of the bands that I used to roadie for back in the day was in town and they were staying with me

while they were visiting. And one of the members of the band was taking a shower in my like second bathroom, not my master bathroom, but you know, my second bathroom. And we heard this like slamming and banging and commotion. And we didn't know what the hell was going on. We ran in and my bathroom was just a war zone. And what happened was, he said he was getting out of the shower. And he tripped on the lip of the shower like his foot did like

on the side of the tub. And he had he was holding the shower curtain with his, like his left hand when he did it. And so he fell forward and he pulled to his a bigger guy. He pulled and the shower curtain and the rod came down on top of him. So he grabbed at the he like fell into the wall and grabbed at the towel railing and ripped it off the wall, which forced me to bounce back. He slammed into my toilet and broke the toilet cover

off of my toilet. And then his shoulder hit into the countertop, which was one of those molded plastic countertops with the sink, a little like a shell. And he cracked the edge of my countertop completely off. And he was just on the ground rolled up in a towel in the shower curtain. And my entire bathroom was ruined in the span of four seconds. It sounds like he was playing skate. Like we're trying to break as much as possible.

Yeah. Right. It was like, it was like, it was like burnout revenge. It was just ping. It was like OJ Simpson in, uh, not when he killed, uh, his wife, but when he was in a naked gun. And he was just like, you know, it's like foot in the bear trap, get shot out the window. It was a hundred percent like that. Which also just reminded me of the time that we did rain run, which was one of those old videos on the RT site, Gavin. And when I split my leg open and I ran into the bathroom and I bent over to look at my leg and when I stood up, I knocked that glass shelf off and I was naked and all the glass and everything in the bathroom

Slammed to the ground around me and I was covered in a I was covered in a wasteland of broken glass with a fucking gash In my leg. Yeah, I think that was time number one of probably six that your penis fell out in front of me Yeah, I think that was the first time yeah That guy it sounded like he was a human pinball. Like, you know, when it gets caught in the bumpers, this is a bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, bump, I didn't have the money to fix at the time. You also had you had parties where people would like break your sinks and toilets and stuff. That did happen at the next house one time at a party. Somebody like sat on a pedestal sink and just fucking cracked it in half. Yeah, it was a friend of a friend, if I remember correctly. Would you if you if you paid a thousand dollars, could you shoot a horse in the head?

What? Wait, I have to pay to shoot the horse or I get paid to shoot the horse? You pay to shoot the horse. What? Do I get in trouble? No. So it's like, like the thousand dollars keeps me legally for a horse murder. Is the horse ill in any way? No, the horse is perfectly healthy

How old is the horse? I think I can go take out some horses and just get away with it. It's like $13,000 right there. I'm saving. Oh my god Why would I pay to kill a horse? Yeah, I don't. I'm glad you asked because it's Christopher Reeves horse. The night before he got paralyzed. It's like a like a shoot baby Hitler in the bassinet kind of a scenario. You kill Superman's horse. Now would you pay the grand to go kill his horse? You know, that'd be so funny, too, because Christopher Reeves

would then make it his life's goal to ruin you. And the whole time, you're like, listen, I'm from the future. You don't understand. I guess you were your neck was going to be broken. Like, I've saved you. I've saved your life and you will never believe me. You just think I'm a psycho who shot your show horse. Do we need to kill the horse? Do you have? Couldn't we just take the horse away? Couldn't we just steal the horse? I have time. who shot your show horse. Do we need to kill the horse?

Do you have? Could we just take the horse away? Couldn't we just steal the horse? You don't have time. You don't have time. You basically don't have time. OK, here's what happens. You walk backwards in time and you have eight seconds with the horse and you've brought a gun. You can't convince the horse in eight seconds.

Not that. Yeah. And I don't think you could take it down bare-handed Yeah Yeah, I don't gonna have to shoot it pulling a horse so you wouldn't do it. You're killing you're killing Christopher even yeah No, no, it's just you know You can't fuck with time like that if movies have taught me anything You can't adjust time that always just makes things worse. I Don't think it can hear you. You think it's destined to happen no matter what?

I think, yeah. Final destination stuff? It's either destined to happen no matter what, or by it not happening, it could have impacts in ways unimaginable. So, hold on. Are you saying that if you had the opportunity to go back in time and shoot that wastebasket before you ended up with your head in it, you wouldn't do it.

Oh, I'd shoot the fuck out of that waste basket. There you go. Yeah. That's a good point. Can I tell it just as a decide one of my favorite, I actually have a horse shooting story. Not a real horse, but I do have this, this touches into one of my favorite memories, which I know it sounds horrible in this context. We're going to unravel this onion back in Red Dead Redemption.

I don't know. Did you guys play much of Red Dead Online? Yeah, I used to do a ton of videos and shit. They had there's a heist like you could do heists in that game, essentially of like Wild West stuff. And they were like chaptered heists. So we're going through and we're doing this heist and we're working through. And it's like four or five sections. And we get to the last section where we've we've taken all the gold

and we need to escape. And we're like reading the mission objective. And while we're doing it, my friend, Dan, you can just hear pop, pop, pop. And we look at him and we go, what are you doing? And he's like, I'm stopping him. He was shooting all of the horses on the carriage in the head because he thought he thought that that was like the police's carriage that they would chase us on. It was our carriage.

He murdered three of our four horses before we even tried to escape. So we're like, no, you idiot. We got it. That's our carriage. You've killed three of the four. Now we got to try to get out of here. You've got one horsepower. We have one horsepower and we're trying to escape Mexico and we're getting shot at from all sides. And it's supposed to be like you can make it because of you have four horses. But because he was trying to do he like popped all of our tires essentially

right before we tried to escape. And that horse died. He shot three horses. Did he pay you three thousand dollars? He did not know we actually probably lost. He owes you three grand. I'd go. Yeah, the heist failed. So we did not get any of the money because he murdered all of our getaway horses. Did the remaining horse have to drag three horse corpses or were they left behind?

They were left behind. OK, well, at least they got helped. They did. Yeah. How often do you think when you see on the news like some senseless, horrible thing like that, like some psychopath went into a zoo and shot a zebra or something that it's actually like a time travel thing where somebody's trying to do it. It's like a Christopher Reeves horse type situation and just nobody believes it. I don't think you should ever write that off. Yeah, you should always consider that as being a potential reason for anything

that's tragic, but nonsensical on its face. So sure. So who out of the group would do it? I would, I wouldn't pay to shoot Christopher Reeves' horse but I would do it. You have to pay for the time travel. It's the ticket to get there. I'd rather spend the grand on a better,

I'm not that big of a Christopher Reeves fan. There's probably something else I could spend the thousand dollars on time travel wise. So you're valuing the next thousand dollars you spend on Christopher Reeves being alive right now or dead. Well, the problem with it, Reeve or Reeves? I think it's Reeves. But now it's Keanu Reeves. Is it Reeves? I think it's Christopher Reeves.

And then George Reeves was the one. No relation to Keanu, I assume, because I don't think they were Canadian. I know Keanu is. Do we explain that there's the three of us talking and also we have Eric, the producer, Nick, the laughing guy. You just did. Yeah. OK. Good job. He named us all at the beginning, which was very nice. I thought that was a well what a what a polite thing to do I don't think I would pay a thousand dollars to shoot a horse. No no even if it could save Superman's life

You are the first one that said no aren't you why are you questioning me? He's not happy with your answer. I just you might have different motivations than I do Why are you arguing the point that you said you wouldn't do? Everybody's different. We need to take a step back. We do, we should take a step back. We need to, because think about this.

Gavin is so fucking willing to kill this horse, it's such a given and a hypothetical for him that he's created a $1 thousand dollar barrier for like no reason. The thousand dollars is kind of irrelevant to that's not the ethical dilemma. I wanted that to be a financial impact. I don't. I think it's like you're giving like that's a lot of money, but I don't think that that's the barrier. It's like, oh man, I would have killed that horse, but I don't have the thousand or. Would you be the reverse of it? I don't have the thousand. Or like the reverse of it.

I don't think the thousand means anything. All right, how about this? Would you pay $1,000 to kill Andrew, but he's reborn the next day. Yes, yes, yes. And Christopher Reeves is safe. Oh, no. I couldn't kill a person.

You did it, we were at Key way. You did it a thousand different ways But that was what? You're saving And Andrew wakes up the next day it is totally alive. He's annoyed that you shot him didn't I kill the dog instead Hey animals Not an animal guy. I feel like I could kill an animal so much easier than a person. Is there an animal you wouldn't kill? Hey, Eric, how does animal killing work for the algorithm?

Does it love it? Is it a big fan? Well, we're about 25 minutes in, so we're safe. It's fine. Great. There's a lot of animals. I don't think I'd have an issue killing. I don't really even kill. If a bug is of animals. I don't think I'd have an issue killing. I don't really even kill if a bug is big enough. I don't want the smush. I just throw them out. Yeah, I'm not a big fan of like goo.

No, I'm not like the gooiest guy. I don't know. What are we doing? Like there's tons of goo in it. In a horse, an animal. Yeah, but a horse is mostly goo. Well, actually, a horse is pretty gooey compared to other animals because you get with the glue out of them Yeah, if you turn a horse inside out, it's mostly goo. Yeah It's not listen I would have gladly murdered this thing, but I'm not a goo guy I can't

Know I'll do it. I'll do it to save a life But I would have my eyes shut and the revolver would be pressed against the forehead. What if it's a ghoulish death? Like what if to kill the animal, you just have to put a trash bag around its head? What animal are we talking about now? Horse.

Pfft. I'm not gonna suffocate at all. Did you rather shoot it? It would take forever. It would take way longer than 80 seconds for a start. And I'd be kicking me all around. Yeah, so it's more of a logistics thing with you. It's going to be quick and painless for the animal.

If I'm if I'm doing it. What if you could give the horse a sleeping pill and then it never woke up? It just went to sleep and then OK, there you go. So like lethal injection injection you could do. Uh, is there an animal you wouldn't lethally inject? Well, all animals. What do you mean? What's the point in doing? I'm only killing this horse. I'd like to point out that we're talking about this because you want to kill a horse. Yeah, but it was a significant horse. I thought that sentence was going to keep going, but it just ended there. Are you big Superman guy?

How did you even know? It's just what made you think of this? I was just thinking it was just sad, wasn't it? That was. on it was that was I think it's sad that like on you know there was a day where that horse was born and I had a lot of hopes and dreams your parents thought it could someday be a six years a limit it could be horse president someday maybe you're framing it like it's Mr. Manhattan and like it's. And in six years, this horse.

I don't know. I just think it's it's scary when there's something when something appears in the world that will kill you. It's I think it's a scary concept. I understand that. Do you think the thing that will ultimately kill you exists in the world today? Like for me, like cholesterol. Yeah. Yeah.

Like which clump of cholesterol from like a steak will do. Yeah. Or like a loud noise on a bad day when you're very old. If if I could take care of the item that would do you in for a thousand dollars, wouldn't you want me to do it? If I could go back off? Wait, why would I go back? I go forward in time now.

I'm getting all time, time confused. If if I could go forward in time right now and take it out, wouldn't you want me to do that for a grand? Yeah, I'd rather you go backwards in time and eliminate it even earlier. It might not be here yet. Yeah, it's true. What about this? I pay you the money and it turns out that you're the thing that kills me.

What do you do? You go to the future and you seek yourself. It's like a looper situation? Yeah, like looper. You see it's you. What do you do? And I'm there situation. Yeah, like Luper, you see it's you. What do you do? And I'm there now looking at me.

Yes. But the old me knows because he's already had the idea to kill you. So the old me knows looking at young me that that young me is there to kill him. So I'd probably be in a pretty instant fight with this guy. Yeah, because you've been harboring rage against me because I refused to go back and save Christopher Reeve. And it's been boiling for years. And you finally go to stop. And it's you. I think it would be so easy to do, Andrew, though.

I would just have to go into the past or the future and just throw away a sushi container. No, it wouldn't be. It would be like Charlie in season three of Lost. You would get rid of the sushi container, then the waste basket would go for me. You'd just be constantly having to save me. Not Penny's boat. What if you could save Andrew's life, but you the only way to do it

is to eliminate all sushi from the planet Earth and people know you did. So they remember sushi. It's everybody. Everybody remembers Uchiko as a fucking sign up in front of it says, thanks, Gav. Now we're all out of work like rooster teeth. And I'm I would save Andrew's life. Yeah, you 100% save his life, but you just destroy. You just ruin eliminate all sushi everywhere from here. Of course I would do that. No brainer.

And if anyone had a problem with it, I'd be like, I saved someone's life, you idiot. What about all the people that inadvertently starve now? Um, I mean, can people still catch their own fish and just eat the fish? Yeah, they just have to prepare it differently. So nobody's going to starve. You're right there. Oh, there you go. There you go.

Fine. Job done. It's kind of like at the end of that video game, life is strange. You can save your best friend's life by letting everybody in the town die, or you can let your best friend die and save everybody in the town. So that was a dead ass town when I played it. I only got like halfway through that game. Is that the end? That is the end. Wow, that takes a turn.

Yeah, it's pretty serious. I'm imagining how to save a life by the fray. And it's just the, how to save a life. And then it's just Gavin shooting a horse in the face. Dr. Cox comes in to try and resuscitate. You can't get it done. Um, it's funny you bring up Superman cause I have a Superman kind of thing in my notes. I I watched Unbreakable for the first time recently, and I watched Brawl and Cell Block 99 recently.

And both of those movies are largely the catalyst of them are guys that don't have the ability to feel pain, like feel any any pain at all. And it made me think about when I got one of my root canals, I got so numbed, I couldn't feel the left side of my face around my mouth So I was curious if you guys had the ability to remove The ability to feel any pain so like you wouldn't know physical pain

You'd still have feelings, but you would feel you were incapable of feeling pain But at the cost of not being able to feel anything Physically, would you do it? Carlisle and that Bond movie Sure, I feel kind of like that's what alcohol was for me for a great many years. I Like that's what alcohol was for me for a great many years. I mean, sure, I could absolutely see the connection to for me. It was an issue.

It was a nightmare when half my mouth was frozen because I couldn't feel anything. And I was drinking out of a can and I was convinced I was constantly not pouring in my mouth because I couldn't I had zero sensation of anything. Yeah, you need to feel you and you need to feel pain. It lets you know when you're dying. Yeah. Like if you if your heart, if you start having like major heart palpitations, there's nothing going to be stopping you from going, I'm going to go for a run. If you didn't feel pain, you just shred your own body without realizing it.

You know, you would constantly look down at the trail of blood where you've been and be like, oh God, did you guys, did you guys watch Fallout, the TV show? Yes. I'm halfway through it. OK, did you get to the part with Johnny Pemberton where his like foot is hanging on out of his sock? Yeah. And it looks like impossible. It would be like that all the time. You'd be like, oh, shit, my foot's hanging off.

I need to get that fixed. But you just would never know. You'd never feel it. That doesn't seem like a bad thing. Well, I guess it's the problem would be is if you did it because of the lack of feeling. You'd be walking on stubs pretty soon. You'd slow you down. How would you know whether your bath was too hot? Yeah, you could win Houston.

Oh, well, that Gavin just sold it for me. Like I need to enjoy that water. I need to enjoy that bath. I need to enjoy that bath That ruin it. Yeah, you would just be sat in you would just be floating in what felt like nothing Yeah, that'd be terrible how much money if I came to you and said I'm gonna give you X amount of money But you can never take a bath. It's just showers for the rest of your life. What would that figure be for you, Andrew? It's always less than you think it is $5,000 you never take a bath again for the rest of your life five horses

What about how do we define a bath Could I could I like is a giant hot tub a bath? Are you is there soap involved? I? Feel like there's soap and hot tubs No, what there's not. I can't see it. What's all the foam? Where does all the foam come from?

If you're having a bath together. What? Well, it's all bubbly and foamy. And I think it's like skin and sunscreen. Yeah, it's much grosser. Who wears sunscreen at a pool like an indoor pool? Nobody's sunscreening at the indoor pool. Well, about the outdoor pools and outdoor hot tub. Yeah, what are we doing?

Because the pool I go to is indoors. So I'm picturing my scenario. And that's foamy. This is a Canada thing. Foam is probably just bubbles. That's probably just oxygen. Nobody is putting soap in the hot tub anyway. Well, they put like bleach and like cleaning product in it, I assume.

And all that stuff. That's not that's not for cleaning you. No, I'm just saying at the point in which they're pouring that in, I don't feel like it's out of the question to assume that maybe there's some soap or something in there. I don't know. If you are in a hot tub and you've got a bottle of shampoo with you, that's a bath. OK. So it would not count. If you are in a hot tub, and you've got a bottle of shampoo with you, that's a bath Okay So it would not count What if I?

What if I like clog the drain and I'm in a shower and it fills you have to get out once it gets over your ankles well Well, yeah, you could just keep moving up, but if you're submerged, that's the bath bit. Yeah hmm $5,000 five horses one of those horses could turn out to be a winner. You don't know But if you'll submerge, that's the bath bit. Yeah hmm $5,000 five horses One of those horses could turn out to be a winner You don't know if it's today that I get paralyzed by a horse and I take that money jokes on you My my rain of bathing or bathing having Jesus

Yeah, I don't it's I don I don't, it would be a lot. It would be more than 5,000. Speaking of showers and baths, I've been wanting to try some things that I've seen people do in movies a lot, but I've never, like there's a lot of things that are like tropes in films, but I've never done it in real life. Like I've never held a door shut with a chair, but I feel like it's very common. And I've never lent against a wall in the shower,

like during a moment of self-reflectiveness or peril. I feel like it's such like a movie thing. Have you ever done that? Yes. Oh, absolutely. You've lent? Yeah. Yeah, totally. I've lent, I've sat, I've laid. Yeah. You've laid on the ground? I've laid on the ground, yeah.

Interesting. Sit down in the shower, feel like you're in a rainstorm? I feel like I've done the chair thing too. What did it feel like to lean against the wall in the shower? What made you do it? Life problems? Getting soap in my eyes and being unconfident about my ability to not fall and take out Jeff's bathroom like that that saxophone player. I was immediately thinking of like James Bond doing it

after like a heavy fight and you're doing it because you got soap in your eyes. Yeah, eyes got all sudsy. You know if you're in a bath shower thing and the floor gets slippery I Can't use conditioner anymore in my setup because it makes the bottom of the bath too slippery And I start sliding around and I just I can't risk it so do you shower in the tub? Yeah, because the shower is connected to a tub got it You're not just like applying conditioner while you're sat in the tub, though. No, no, no, no. Like if I stand, I put the conditioner in my hair. It washes off onto the floor and it becomes like an ice skating rink.

The bottom of my tub, it slicks and then I slide around and it's a very narrow tub. It's a tall but narrow tub. And so I just I had to give up conditioner. Sounds like I would have to pay a grant to shoot a little bottle of conditioner. Is that is that maybe why Canadians are so good at ice skating? Oh, man, it could be. Can't rule it out. Are we good at I guess we are because hockey, right? Like, I bet you Canada has as a population.

I would assume I would think it's probably because of the weather, ice and hockey. Yeah, I'm thinking like Russia would probably be up there. Yeah, not so much America, maybe Sweden, Norway, Finland. Not not as much in Texas, but yeah, they're definitely not as much in Texas. I don't think I can name a professional hockey player from Texas, and I'm sure there is one that I just am not aware there from Texas But there's not one that like jumps in my mind. I'm not sure I can name a professional hockey player

Wayne Gretzky Connor Connor Bidard. There you go. I got one Connor Hey, can I can I tell you guys a story about something that happened to me recently that is a house or? No, I have a bunch of house stories to tell you in the near future, but not today. OK, I was stressed out about stuff, though, when I did this. The other day I was driving around and as you may or may not know, there's been a lot going on in our lives the last couple of months. What with them being completely and totally upended in every way career wise. And then, you know, I've been busy in my personal life too, uh, because of the

domino effects of all these things, you know? And, uh, and so I was driving around from like place to place running errands the other day and I was in Emily's car because I had to pick something up or drop something off and she's got a bigger car than I do. And I was, uh, I don't know, it was one of those days where I was just completely and totally lost in my, you know, these days when you're just like, you're concentrating and thinking so hard about stuff that everything else you're doing is kind of on autopilot. You know what I mean?

You're using like five percent of your brain to operate the human and the rest of it is just completely and totally trying to figure out finances or life moves or whatever it is. finances or life moves or whatever it is. And I realized I had to get gas and so I stopped at a gas station and I went out and I was put the thing in and I started filling up gas and I was standing there and then I was like oh you know it'd be nice it would be nice if I got an energy drink because I'm fucking exhausted and Emily would probably like one too so I went inside and I bought two Monster Energy drinks, the ones that Eric likes to make fun of me for drinking. And bought those and went out and got in the car and drove away as normal.

And about three miles down the road, I thought to myself, something's not sitting right with me over the last few minutes. What is off? And I thought you should pull over and figure this out. So I pulled over and I sat for about five seconds. Then I realized, oh, I never stopped getting gas. I just drove away. Oh my God. I get out of the car. I get out of the car and sure enough, my gas cap is off and the little things open. I'm like, holy fuck. Have I just... What do I do? My dad did this once. I remember it was a whole thing.

And I'm like, oh my God, I didn't know what to do. And I thought, well, you're like three miles away from the place. You just keep driving. And I thought, no, no, no, no, no, I got to go back. I got to go back. And I went back. And all I'll say is I drove back by the gas station and there was somebody else getting gas at that pump. And I thought, OK. And so I just went home.

I guess I didn't do any damage. Nothing popped off or broke. And I guess I'd already paid because I, you know, I put my credit card in everything. I just didn't get the receipt. But yeah, I think, oh, my God, I think I drove off and I guess I'd already paid because I, you know, I put my credit card in and everything. I just didn't get the receipt. But yeah, I think I think I drove off and I guess the gas can't the gas nozzle must have just flown out when I drove away. So wait, though. Where did you put the the cap when you're filling up?

It's connected on a yeah, it hangs off. It's connected by like a little plastic rope or whatever. Holy shit. You're so lucky you weren't trailing the whole hose. My dad did. He did it one time and the pump got stuck in and he trailed the hose. Yeah. Maybe they've designed them in a way to prevent it now. Yeah, they pop off easily. And even then, it didn't happen, apparently, because it was somebody else was getting gas there.

So I didn't do any damage. But holy shit, dude, I can't fucking believe that I am that person. I have to go through the rest of my life knowing that I did that. And I'm kind of horrified. I don't think that happened to people that I know. Yeah, it shouldn't. It really shouldn't. And I'm embarrassed to say that it did. When you said the pump went with you or went with your dad, I imagined like the vault in

Fast and Furious 5 that they're pulling around, but like he's dragging the entire gas pump and it's like still going up the amount that he's using as he's driving away, the thing pulling behind him. If it was Fast and Furious universe, though, it would be like exploding constantly on everything that it is. It'd be like blowing up. Oh, this is a trails HD minigame now. Driving away with explosions in my rear mirrors. I guess. Oh, what the fuck's going on?

You didn't hear like a big clunk. No, I didn't hear anything and no damage was done to the car or the pump, apparently. And I told Emily and she's like, you just don't remember closing it and putting it away. And I was like, but I know I didn't. I know I just got in the car and drove away. I know I did. You should try to get the security.

It's crazy. Yeah. Yeah, I just I would be so stressed if I were you driving back. So embarrassed. I did. I was. Yeah, I was ready to go back and be like, I'm here. I assume I pay a fine or something. But yeah, that was. Oh, I bring my head. I've created a Zoolander is what is happening. The entire drive.

You think the place is on is on fire. Yeah. I think that I've covered the entire place with gasoline and it is on fire. I'd be so stressed heading back to that gas station. That's crazy. Definitely. I don't get embarrassed very often. Which is crazy. You think I agree. Like if anybody should be embarrassed on a daily basis,

it would be me. But I mean, just physically alone, right? But I, yeah, I'm pretty embarrassed about that one. I can't believe I was horrified with myself. Just horrified. That's definitely a badge for life. Yeah. Oh man. And I think it's just a symptom of how incredibly

intense and stressful the last few months have been, I guess. Maybe I should start, instead of laughing at all the videos I see of people doing that. Maybe I should just think, oh, I bet they had a lot going on. Yeah, I bet. I bet they did. I bet they did. Speaking of travel, I want to talk about something exciting to have. Recording this on Thursday before our Patreon has started. We haven't even shared our new logo yet, but we have debuted it

because I've been doing some some sloppy Joe streaming. I've been streaming the feed and we had two amazing members of our community, the twins we love dearly has been so much went down to sloppy Joe's and unveiled our logo and people don't even know it's an official reveal yet. I'm so excited to be able to share this on social media of them. It was so funny seeing them like covertly walk into the frame of the camera and then just reveal the signs of people in the chat freaking out.

So twitch clips of it that are so good. God bless. Oh, that's great. They are. It was so they are. They are just the most wonderful people. They are so unbelievably wonderful and supportive. And I would I was it was a ridiculous idea

I had and then learning that they were in Florida, they were so game to do it. I'm so happy that they're able to pull it off and it was just awesome. That's one step above Comet Lever I think is Logo Revealer. Logo Revealer. Yeah. Not a lot of people that can do that. You don't get to do it very often. It's a very coveted position.

They're the only two I know. We should make a shirt and sell two of them. Just give it to them. They're the only ones that have it. Yeah, I mean, we don't even get to wear it. Should we also mention that the regulation podcast, and like who created the logo for us? I think there's some wonderful lineage there as well.

Yeah, do you wanna expand on that? Yeah, sure. Michelle from Rooster Teeth, who designed the original fuckface logo, we hired her post-rush teeth to design the regulation logo. I think she did a phenomenal job. So good. I love our logo. Yeah. And we have multiple variations of it. It's it's awesome.

Yeah. So can I ask some some questions about the rules of how everything works in this new podcast? Yeah, please do Sure, do we still bleep fuckface? No, no I don't think well, I don't think we can because I mean, you know, we're going back and forth and figuring stuff out We don't own it. So I don't know that the bleep Yeah, what I mean, we don't own even the bleep. I don't think we do. I think we own the, I think we can bleep and we can say face, but I don't know that we can bleep

and then say face back to back quickly. But fuck face, so you can say that all day long. Yeah. But what if I personally bleep it? Like with a. I mean, that's you, you're taking on your own express liability. Yeah. So I'm now like like our lawyer won't help me out

Yeah, I mean this doesn't I mean are you bleeping it in your home or you bleep bleeping it publicly? In some sort of mass way because you bleep whatever you want. You're in the sanctity of your own home What do you mean bleeping it publicly? Like are you bleeping it in a video that people are gonna see or hear? Or are you just doing it for yourself in your own home? I don't understand the question. Am I recording the bleep? Are you distributing the bleep? What does that mean? Where's the bleep coming from? It's just coming from my mixerep Does anybody else hear it or just you well I assume it's on my way file Maybe not well I just did it that one time to ask the question. I haven't been bleep in the whole time I see You can hear it

No, you heard that no no no okay nobody heard it. That's why nobody knows what you're fucking talking about I'm not just doing it. I just why nobody knows what you're fucking talking about I did it to ask the question I have another question about the old thing. Okay, Andrew Do you think the name piss boy and like eating the pencil will follow you over to this podcast? I Don't think that's for me to decide I don't think I get a vote in that considering I didn't get a vote in that on the last run, so I know I don't assume I get to make that choice I have a feeling it was for Gavin to decide and he just did I think I will say that somebody played audio of them peeing for like two minutes on this show

55 seconds What a great point. Wow. Well, I mean, we already knew that Jeff has been recording pisses. We found out on Does It Do. Yeah. But does that make it worse, Andrew, that you're still associated with Piss Boy and you've never done any piss bits? You've just been a piss watcher. Where's your piss bits?

Yeah, I don't. I would argue I've done the least amount of piss bits in this show. I don't think I've done a piss bit. You're fucking, you peed all over Edgar Wright. That's true. That also is not the show, just to be clear. I mean, it's, yeah. Are you looking to, are you looking for a clean piss slate?

Is that where you're, is that where you're trying to get out of this, Andrew? I would love one, but once again, this has never been my choice. So I'm not. We could clean the piss off your slate. This is the one time to do it. The phrasing of that. That seems not great. Like what if you're no longer piss boy as of today? Wow. Today, as of right now. Yeah, potentially.

I mean, I'll take it. But once you look out your window right now, is that do you see the woman pissing on the side of a building? I don't know. I think you might be in it. You know, in fact, I haven't seen one since. That was a one-time event. I have one final question. Okay.

Are you in the Herman Miller chair? No, I'm not. I was gonna end it. I was gonna sit down. I'm still in the shit chair. Oh, you're gonna transition life? I was gonna transition live to it amazing Yeah, I can't believe you've got a Herman Miller chair, and you have been ignoring it for how long now? months My I mean there's so many things I What I've learned is I cannot wait for bits because I have been planning Since we knew

Since we knew that we were gonna have to do a new thing I've had a bit in mind for this episode since 196 and Part of that bit involved Gracie who now has a real job and is not here So I never got to do it. But I assume that Gracie had no awareness of the beginning and some of the events of our podcast with like the double salted licorice and the soda chug and all these things

and the 100 percent chocolate. I was going to do them all at once, just like back to back to back Tiger Balm on the balls. And I don't have a reason to do that. Well, maybe if, maybe if we do well on Patreon, we can, we can give an appearance fee for Gracie to put. I love it. That's good. Do you think she would have time? Uh, I've, so just so you guys know, just for full transparency transparency I am currently working with her on some of this stuff to make time for us and others She it's we are it's hard because she's working a real job for a real production company with real

Fucking hours like it is not real expectations. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, would you pay a thousand dollars to shoot a horse? It's like I did invite them to our stream, but they are they're unfortunately not available But I'm sure we'll get scared her off with my anus and vagina. No, I don't think so I don't I don't think so. But also I can't imagine that it helped. Yeah It just did us no favors. It certainly didn't help. Yeah, it did not do any favors. I don't want to get in. I don't want to get too much trouble here.

I'm the secretary, as people should know by this point. By now, yeah. Do they already know? I think that'll be the first piece of content we put on our Patreon. I think it should be. Yeah, that's great. But but Eric is our president. I think it should be not yeah, that's great, but um but Eric is our president I Hey, Eric. I am I straight I might need a presidential pardon

Episode one now I know here's what I'll say is I don't know how many of these I'm willing to give out in a year because I think you guys are gonna run roughshod, so you really get one yeah Oh, I think it's definitely one per year. Definitely. And we're halfway through. So, I mean, really, you're getting, you know, you got plenty of time. But go for it, Andrew. I had a realization that. Well, OK, so when we when we learned about all this stuff, we're going to potentially have to make a new YouTube channel and all that.

I claimed a bunch of that stuff a long time ago, months ago. And as we've been teasing things, our wonderful listeners have been having like, oh, I found this. I found that type thing and sharing it. And this is one of the primary ones that we've shared. Let me post it. It's a thread about it recently. And it's really funny.

It's a great. It's a great account. So there's, as you can see, this is the post. It's called Regulation Pod on YouTube. Currently, it's three points, five subscribers or a thousand subscribers. Yeah, which is pretty good considering we haven't promoted this in any way. And I looked at that and Ratty Boy is the image of it. Yeah. And I went, Oh, that's funny.

That's a funny thing I did. I don't remember doing that. I don't remember doing that because that's not the YouTube I made. I don't think that's any of our YouTube. I think that's a the YouTube I made. I don't think that's any of our YouTube. I think that's a fan account. Yeah. The YouTube that I made for us has three subscribers currently, and I can't even find it when I mainly search

because I was trying to take the scroogey pic. What are you talking? I went I made the regulation podcast YouTube. OK, this was before we even locked stuff in. That currently has three subscribers. Well, let me check. Maybe someone got added. So I think I may have at one point been like, ah, yeah, you found it or like acknowledged this in some capacity.

I think I'm probably acknowledging someone else's. Yeah. And last night I had a panic of maybe I made because I did make multiple YouTube's. I did not make that one. And if none of you guys made that, I think I might request a presidential pardon on this issue. I definitely didn't make that. I don't think I made that either.

What is the pardon you're asking for though? I don't understand. I feel like I Endorsed yeah, I feel like I endorsed a fan account thinking it was my that's no no that's absolutely on you. I there's no There's no it is on me. Yes, so is the crime that people typically get pardoned for no I'm asking for an exception here. No. Wow. I mean like-

The first pardon denied. Wow. Here's why. Here's why. I would have given it to you too. That's cool, not president. So here's why. I have a real issue with the way that

we have no consistent branding over any of our names. We have picked and chosen the regulation pod, the regulation podcast, regulation pod, regulation podcast. We're all over the place with this stuff. And I put that squarely, Andrew, at your feet. So, so what are we? No pardon.

Yeah, go ahead, Andrew, what are we? No pardon. Yeah, go ahead, Andrew. What are we? Well, we're the regulation podcast because that's what you want. That was that was your big. I assume that's no, no, no, I'm sorry. There's no thus. We're regulation podcast. Yeah, regulation podcast.

That's what I said. We're regulation. Oh, it's not what is now. This is going back to an argument we had when I said when I intro the first episode, do I say welcome to a regulation podcast, welcome to regulation podcast or welcome to the regulation podcast? I always thought it was the. And I do remember Eric saying, what are you talking about? You just say welcome to the regulation podcast. And I. Yeah. And you don't need, but we don't need. And the other part of what I said is that you don't need the in The name because it's just it's it's like it's not called the fuckface

It was all I should have been everywhere But see here's the thing in my hindsight and I didn't want to all right all right hang on Let us into your head go ahead man. Yeah, that's well. Why did you interrupt me in? I want I'm preparing myself. I'm wiping my feet at the door. I'm ready to walk right in. Go regulation podcast. We're one of many to me.

The represented that we were the regulation podcast. There was a different meaning. It hit differently. So I agree. You're right. I didn't think that we were the fuckface podcast because that doesn't have the same meaning as regulation. That's like a standard. Is there different things?

I do feel like we're kind of planting a flag in the sand here with the with the word regulation. Like we're basically creating because we can we can be regulation podcast, which is the regulation podcast because it is a Regulation podcast all at the same time. We're becoming like the dictionary definition of what a regulation podcast is, but we are also the regulation podcast Called regulation podcast sounds are really fuck-faced ourselves. Yes. That is exactly that that's exactly So here's the real answers. This is the real explanation for why there's inconsistency in that.

Some platforms. Yeah, some platforms have different maximum character counts. And that was before we locked in the podcast would be called Regal podcast because I wanted to get on top. I'm sorry that I cared to lock these up as quickly as possible. Not accepted, but OK. Yeah. That's fair. You're the president. Listen, I'm the secretary. I respect it.

I respect whatever rule you make. But I feel like I tried to get ahead of the game in favor of all of us. And then when I was making all these accounts, I was trying to do it consistently, but some of them had shorter maximum character counts, which is what created the inconsistency in that account. So what are we calling it now when we shoot ourselves in the foot due to stupidity? I think you're still fuck-facing yourself.

Okay. We didn't regulate ourselves. No. No. Okay, good. You could Greg yourself, maybe. No, you can Greg. You could Greg yourself maybe. No, you can Greg. You can salad cream still.

You can salad cream, you can brimley. Oh, brimley. I forgot about brimley. I feel like I'm getting a lot of heat from the 100% heat guy as well, which is just like, what do you put 100% in? Do you put the symbol in? How does the search ability?

I feel like that's also a nightmare. One zero one zero zero P.R.C.E.N.T.E.A.T. But the logo doesn't reflect that. Yeah, no point. The visuals of it. So what are we? And when you and hang on, I don't know our channels. And when you find our channels, that's where they are. They're in the same place.

So what I'm saying is that when we say, you want to find us here or find us there Andrew Where can you find us on Twitter? I'm Twitter regulation pod on Twitter and cuz they're smaller care. Where can you find and where can you find us on Instagram? the regulation pod This sucks. Right. Exactly. Well, I'm sorry I did all the work. I apologize. Next time I'll let you guys do the work. Apology not accepted. It's fine.

Can I just jump in and say, Andrew, I'm just a bog standard employee. I'm a I'm a 20 percent co-owner. I don't have a title. I didn't win or lose a Smash Brothers campaign. I just landed right in the middle until the next election. That's where I'm gonna be. So my voice is as close to meaningless within the company as you can get.

But I just like to say that I appreciate what you're saying. And without an official title or responsibility I know it doesn't carry much weight, but I thank you for your efforts And I appreciate your initiatives, and I think what you've done is charming No, I would I would not describe it as charming I would describe it as messy But I did the best I could take the fucking compliment. I said charming don't refute my compliment now I don't know why you're trying to help him compliment. Now I don't know Jeff. I just

Try to fucking I'm saying I think that Eric is forgetting there's four-year terms to this whole presidential thing You may be a little drunk with power. We'll see what happens. Well, that's definitely true. Yeah Oh, that's a good point because if Eric rejects all your pardons, it's gonna definitely affect the next presidential term presidential term on the presidential term is another Smash Brothers tournament. Now, a different tournament, maybe. But yeah, maybe we'll go brawl hall and next time you in four years.

Did we determine our elections every four years like the U.S. presidential election? Is that what we've landed on? Or is that just an assumption? OK. It'll be fucking wild to still be doing a podcast with you guys in four years. I hope we remember to reelect. Did we even have fuckface for four years? No, I don't think so.

So I just did. I just did a I have a meta sheet to keep organized for myself and Nick. And I just laid out dates and everything. And I just dragged down from today until I felt like it was pretty long. Landed on 235 episodes and that will be November 8th, 2028. Good Lord. Yeah.

Wow. Yeah. Feel pretty good about that. What is it now? 2024. That could be your president, folks. Whoo. That guy would give me a pardon. Should we time travel to 2028 right now? No, no, no, no, no, we can do it.

We can do this. Of course you want to kill. No, try this out. One, two. No, you idiot. You idiot. In four years, I'll say three and then we'll be, that'll be it. And you can cut those together. But not that now. I was throwing the ball. Do it. Do it.

Throw the ball clean and have everybody shut up. Well, I mean, just I'll just mute you. All right. All right. One. Forget it. I right, all right. Well, one, forget it. I've lost my tunes yet. Hey, here's the thing, Andrew.

Just because I'm not pardoning you doesn't mean I don't appreciate what you do for the show. I think you've done a great job. We just have to figure out the things specifically that we are saying to people so that way they know where to find us. Oh no, I, yeah, totally. Absolutely. So thank you very much.

And thank you very much to Jeff, Gavin, and Nick also, because this whole process has been incredibly difficult. We've done a really great job of, I mean, working together, not killing each other, and being pretty excited to do this for a while. And thank you to the fans, regulation listeners, and comment-leavers alike for following us as we go forward because I'm very, very, I've been so stressed out.

I mean I'm braver now than ever, but like I'm so excited. I'm so, so excited. It's the longest week. Yeah. It has not been harder than I expected it to be, but it has been harder than I think anything should be, unfortunately.

And that's not the fault of any one individual or entity or anything like that. It's just like, this stuff is just fucking hard. It's just hard to get shit done in 2024, unfortunately. But I'm so, I cannot tell you how good it feels to be at the end, what I assume is the end of the first episode and knowing that we can now breathe a little fucking sigh of relief in a few minutes when we stop recording because we actually got here Congratulations guys. I

Can't fucking the last two months has been very difficult and I really appreciate all of all of your hard work Getting us across the finish line and to the new start line so we can do this all over again. I'm so excited. I feel like I have just so much energy for this. I can't wait to expend it. Hell yeah. I can't wait to watch you expend it. Well, I hope you expend it everywhere,

all over everything. I wanna see you expend so fucking hard over the next four years that Andrew's gonna slip and slide in it like it's his bathtub. Gavin, have you ever have you ever spent a thousand dollars to spend it before? Can I make a small request before we end? Sure, of course. Yeah. If I die between now and four years from now, can someone else say three

and just finish off the time travel bit? Yeah, whichever one of us is still alive. Okay. Can do it. So appreciate it. So here's what we need to do because we can't just say, okay, we're gone. But hey, go to patreon.com slash regulation pod,

sign up for our Patreon support us directly because we are truly fully independent. It has been a weird couple months, but we are truly fully independent. There is no one backing this. It is just us. No, there is someone backing it. It's you.

It's you the listener 100%. We are in your hands. Please. No, I'm sorry. I apologize. I thought you were gonna continue. So go to a Patreon, subscribe there. You can get some, we have some exclusive supplemental stuff

We have a lot going on and more to add so we're really excited going over there Scroll down in the description here, and we'll list all of our social media channels that I'm sure We figured out this point yeah At whatever they are yeah, I feel like the Patreon stuff will be evolving as we work through the remaining stuff, but it's definitely the place to support us now, if you would like. Yes. Yes, absolutely.

And here's the thing. If you don't want to support us financially through Patreon or whatever, that's totally fine. Listen to the show. You listening to the show is a great way to support us. You know what helps us even more is if you download the episode instead of streaming the episode. Found that out.

Is that true? Yes. Another great free way to support us, if money's not your thing, which I get, is to tell people. Seriously. Yep. Totally. We change the name.

It's so much easier to explain to people now. Hopefully that that won't be a hurdle for you. And then also, I don't know if I said it earlier, but please. The entirety of Fuckface, I feel like we grew because of word of mouth from other people, like we have so much of our growth to that. So it would really mean a lot to us if you share this or even just let people know, because we're in a different spot right now. We're having to at the time rebuild all these feeds. So it would be great.

And let's link to our Patreon and not like a fan made. Oh, I don't. Don't worry. That's fine. That's that's where we're good. I got good news. We got four subscribers. Somebody subscribe. I got you last night's okay. We're good. I got you. I got good news. We got four subscribers somebody subscribe I got you last night cool. We're set So I guess we'll be back with another Regulation podcast this time next week and then the next week and the next week in the next week until Gavin says three at least And we probably got some videos coming out on YouTube or on the

Patreon. I'm sure Andrew's communicating that through social media or we all are. So look out for that on those official feeds. And you can watch how Eric became president and how Andrew became the secretary. Riveny. Ideally already have. It's an entire political season distilled into one forty five minute video. It's pretty it's pretty intense. I love that we work at a company that legitimately decided who was president

because of Super Smash Brothers simulations. Yeah, not even a bit like that actually became that was legally binding to the company. Yes. Can I modify that? But maybe change the frame reframe the way you said that. You don't work at a company. You own that company. That's true. Hell yeah.

Pretty cool. We all do, which is wonderful. It's crazy. I'm so excited for the next episode. We'll be the next steps will be the first one that we've done since the Patreon has launched. We are still before launch with this recording. Oh, yeah.

Interesting to be in a whole new world. We have no idea how well or poorly that went. Oh, maybe for the next fighting game simulation, we can decide who does whose performance review. That's a good idea. Interesting. Interesting. Oh, OK. I'll see you next time. Thanks. Oh. Okay, we'll see you next time.

Thanks for listening. Go subscribe to the Patreon. See you next week. See you later. Bye. Bye. Love you. Bye.

Love you.
