It's true. I just went to a new one.

This concludes your regulation announcement.
Hello and welcome to another episode of the regulation podcast.
This is episode zero to five.
My name is Jeff Ramsey with me, as always, Nick Schwartz, Andrew Pant and Gavin Free,
Eric Bedore in no particular order.
Hello. Hello. Hello. How's everybody been in the last three minutes? Great.
Pretty good. Good. How are you in the last three minutes?
Good. Good. I got I had a burp and I accidentally swallowed it.
And now it's just kind of in there.
And I don't know if it's going to come out or if it's.
That's like the saddest thing you can do.
So you want to sit on my lap and I'll pat your back
Careful, there's no shit on it if we didn't
If we can if we can film it release it on patreon absolutely because boy we make a killing work
We're why would shit be on my lap?
Well, where are we gonna do something and achieve 100 or 100 years ago where I sat in your lap and shit on you?
Do you remember that? Yes. Yeah, I can't remember what the the qualifier was for doing that. Yeah, but you wanted to just
Sit on my lap fully clothed and take
Well for the record what I no longer have that desire
Not looking to do that in twenty twenty four.
Not sure why I wanted to back then.
I'm excited to hear Gavin's notes because Gavin earlier in the week said
he's pretty excited about his notes.
I don't think you want to have my nose because one of my notes is Andrew is an idiot.
No, I listen. That's every week.
Do you got any notes this week, Andrew?
Oh, I got so many notes. I got a few myself
I was in the lab. I came up with some supplemental ideas on a pitch to you guys today, but let's start
Let's start with Gavin. Why is Andrew an idiot? Oh, let me prepare some screenshots
Fuck he brought visual aids. Yeah, he doesn't need proof for this trial. It's made the rule
We put out we put out a little supplemental
code tuned up. Yeah. A lovely video. Oh, that I drew to make his little conversation from the slack.
You know what? This is, I feel unwarranted. Now, can we now I see what you're doing here. Is there
a way that we can get a dramatic
Reenactment like Jeff Nick you can be Nick. I'll be
I'll be Andrew if you want to be Gavin Jeff. I'll be Gavin. Yeah. Okay. Okay. All right
Okay, I'm also I have to paste yeah, go ahead. I'm ready with the second page. Okay. All right
Any preference on game footage I should use for tuned up? Nope. Okay. Tone down for visual. The recording of the web. Sorry, can we get another, can we get a
second read on that? Uh, is it tuned up a visual thing? Oh, that's way closer. Sorry. One more. Could we just get just a slightly clearer, maybe?
Okay.
Is it tamed up a visual thing? The recording of the website. Oh, that's pretty good.
Not the first, the next two are. How would people know what we're reacting to? Sometimes we just went, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh uhhhhh uhhhhh uhhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh I could make those quizzes and just take the screenshots I tried guys. Wait, did you read that?
Okay.
It's an extra medium and up only release.
So I assume the vast majority of people who consume it will be via audio.
Okay.
Now, what I'm referring to is that a lot of the time we would put in a guess for the band
or whatever and it would just throw back a bunch of results and we'd be talking about
the results.
We'd be like, oh, you know, reacting to it.
But at that point, Andrew had argued his point and I said, being done with discussing it.
Okay.
Uh huh.
Andrew then wrote this.
I haven't listened back to it, but it certainly works as an audible.
I haven't listened to it. I never listened to anything that we do.
I listened to it. I'm doing, you know, maybe we should have the video and I get that we didn't
record it, right? But what we could have done and that was, and
because you, you'd never like it when I, when I say we should have done this and there's no,
there's no like alternate thing. So I even suggested I'll just type them in. I'll take
some screenshots of the exact results. You don't have to type in the same thing.
No, you didn't say that. What? You said we, you said we could, there's no me. There's no moment
of you saying I could do this. If you said I could do this,
I would say absolutely. Go ahead. I just met us as a company. Well, you said if you meant
we never refers to if it's just just go do it, just go do it. If you think it's a good
idea to do. It's not it's not just go do it because it's that it's like, you know, will
the person editing have enough time to put it in?
I didn't want to just do it for no reason.
And you said no.
Yeah.
I didn't say no.
I never said no.
What did you mean by it's extra medium only?
So I assume the vast majority of people who can see it
will be via audio.
I was giving a point as to why it may not be a big deal.
I never said no, don't do that.
Okay. Well, either way, I was putting up a suggestion, a solution to the problem
where we could basically refilm it.
But and then what was the response to the video?
There was a lot of all the visual things where it should have been a visual.
I've got a series of issues with this.
First of all, I already admitted to Gavin he was right.
Literally the day it happened and he did not acknowledge it like a little weasel.
He just screen shot it all these things. Zero acknowledgement to my comment that he was already
right. How does that make me a weasel? This, this stuff was already screen shot.
That's a little weasel move, not reacting, but taking your little screenshots for your bit on the podcast.
I'm reacting right here. I'm saving it for the recording.
Second of all, I'm not the one who's editing that. This is a public channel. Nick or whoever could anybody else?
I never said no, this isn't about me. I gave an opinion and nobody else replied.
This is not me.
Each of your responses was saying we didn't need it.
I was just saying that I don't because you did this what the day before it was supposed
to come out and I was just articulating a point as to why I felt it wasn't necessary,
but I never said no.
And just cause I think something is necessary in the same way that to you,
we means also me and anyone can do it. Me vocalizing.
I don't think it's necessary. Is it me saying it shouldn't happen?
I'm just giving my perspective.
I just feel that every response you have said, don't worry about it.
I'm not going to, you know, if you feel like,
but that's just me, there't worry about it. I'm not going to, you know, if you feel like. But that's just me.
There's five of us.
What are the what are the people who read it and didn't reply?
Just because I'm the only one who replied.
I feel like your issue should be with the three other people.
Oh, yeah. Get fucking real.
I think the three other people were trying to stay out of this fight.
A hundred percent.
You have to go at it.
No. But, Jeff, you were in the recording.
What did you think? Did you have an opinion?
We did it so long ago, I couldn't remember.
I was out of town when you had this argument, so I was on vacation.
Wasn't an argument.
It seemed like an argument.
It wasn't an argument.
Eric, Eric, how did Eric and Nick, how did you guys take it?
I vote it was an argument.
Yeah, absolutely.
I never viewed it as an argument. That sounds like three votes. It felt like one that
The three vote system doesn't work in that context
I care about Gavin's vote Gavin. Did you think we were arguing? No, I just know we were having a discussion about the video
I just thought we're talking back and forth about like what that was
But usually I don't chime in unless I feel like something's gonna be missing.
Usually you don't chime in unless the shirt just came out or it's about to come out.
And it's too late to do anything about it.
No, no, no. I chimed in before the shirt came out and when it was about to come out.
Maybe I should chime in less.
Right. No, no, no.
Chime in is good.
No, no.
I think your timing maybe just needs some work, but that's it. Maybe you should chime in less. Right. No, no, no. You're good. No, no. OK.
I think your timing maybe just needs some work, but that's it.
I will say it is nice to be on the outside of We Is Not Me Part 2 and seeing just sort
of like that's pretty great.
It's not.
It's not just me.
I wrote we because if Andrew was like, oh, yeah, let's do it.
I would have just done it.
I will say when we did this did just happen a couple of days ago
where we had a video that we recorded for The Quiet Place
and Andrew's footage died and he mentioned it.
And then Gavin was like, let's re-record it.
And we all jumped in and were like, let's re-record it.
I'm ready to fucking go right now.
Yes.
So I feel like we've take we've learned from the from the first incident
and we've already applied that to the to the
Following incidents and seems like we're on the right track going forward. Yeah, I
Agree I
Just don't see how I'm an idiot in this scenario. I was fully on board to be I'm the fool
I don't think I'm an idiot here
Wait, you're a fool, but not an idiot. No, I'm a general fool, but I don't think what I did in this instance is an example of that.
He's a general fool, but not a specific idiot.
Yes.
What was it Terry Bradshaw said? I may be stupid, but I'm not dumb.
Exactly.
Yeah, I was mainly fine with with the discussion. I just like at the end you're like I haven't listened to it though.
Oh, I never listened to any of it.
The first thing I listened to was that quiet place thing because I was trying to sink it.
I'll just say there's a lot of chiming in for someone who hasn't listened to it.
Definitely feels like a fight to me.
That's what I'm saying!
Not a fight!
I was just trying to be helpful.
Next time, if I haven't listened, I will not reply, which means I will not reply to whatever
the thing is.
Well that's not helpful.
No, you can shut- No.
If you remember the recording, though.
Well now you're driving him away, Gavin!
Well, I- If listening is a prerequisite.
Andrew, would you feel better if Gavin apologized?
No, I don't.
He's fine. Sorry.
I shouldn't have written my note as Andrew's an idiot,
but I did want to bring up this frustrating interaction.
Maybe the note should have been I'm frustrated.
Those would be my only notes for this show.
I know it would be weasel move.
Now is the British weasel related to the British jackal?
I don't think so.
I don't see how it was weasel.
Because you didn't ignore the fact that you had this lined up, you're at it in the chamber.
I knew it was going to be content and then if I reacted and blew my reaction in the slack,
it's not as good.
I wanted to
Little ha a little little just any any form of interaction because I said all that and I was like I guess Gavin just didn't
Whatever. Okay weird
zero response from Gavin on that I
Don't know if that was weasely though
The fact that you avoided it for to attempt to blindside me on the show with Andrews and
idiot.
We save stuff all the time for the podcast, don't we?
Yeah, but the fact that it was Andrews and idiot and I approached you waving the idiot
flag.
Waving the idiot flag!
That's true.
I handed you with the idiot flag and you didn't acknowledge it and then were quiet for a few
days and then you opened with, got a note Andrew's an idiot
Hey, Andrew, remember that time you waved your idiot flag and I didn't acknowledge it. Let's talk about it
That's true. I did say to me in a in a private message. Where's the screenshot of that?
Every single comment of the video version of chewed up of people wanting the perspective
It's an army of you being right. I
Immediately conceded I feel like we need to make an idiot flag
And then somebody has to have it at all times and they have to have it behind them when we record and then it's how
Yeah, it's like the reverse tower of pimps from a team honor. It's going to suck to spend $40 every time you have to give it to Andrew.
It's just staying with me.
It's not going anywhere permanently, I think.
Yeah. You know what, Andrew, you immediately admitted it to me.
I didn't I didn't have seen the comments yet.
So I appreciate how you are ready to be wrong in my face.
What?
I listen, I'll be wrong in your face any day of the week.
So a lot of people would have kept quiet and I appreciate you.
Yeah, listen, I saw it and I knew I figured you might not see it.
So I went through the effort of making sure you knew.
Hey, this opinion I had turned out was wrong.
It's the wrong opinion.
You're right.
Oh, but the next ones will have a video component.
Yeah. Although I deleted all my OBS settings in which I did that.
Or wait, no, Nick, Nick, you were there.
So I didn't need to. Never mind. It's fine.
What? We're all good.
I'm pretty sure you have it.
If not, it's uploaded and it's fine.
Doesn't matter. It's in the past.
We recorded a lot of stuff.
Are you saying you deleted all your recordings?
No, I threw out all my OBS foot at your settings
that I was using to capture my desktop.
But didn't you already capture the next two?
Yes. I captured one. He did the other. Yes.
So you. But I was in referencing.
I said going forward, they will all be recorded.
And then I said, although I just deleted all my OBS settings.
Oh, I see. I see.
It's a bit circuitous to get there, but I understand what you're saying now.
I understood immediately. We're not recording now.
You still have time to set it up again.
Do you know what the words mean going forward?
You said going forward, but I just deleted everything.
Yeah.
Meaning that I will have to figure that out before that is the thing that happens.
Doesn't affect the going forward.
There'll be video though.
If I, if I, if I don't have any of the settings in which I recorded the video,
how am I going to record the video?
Cause we'll sell that up.
We're not recording right now.
We're not recording right now
Okay It was just a throwaway point is more
I was just trying to make a little joke about how I had to delete all that coincidentally today for a different thing oh
My god, I know I'm annoyed I come for the record Andrew
I'm 100% on your side in that interaction. I totally got what you were saying
Crazy and so did Nick. I don't know why Gavin got real pedantic real fast for no reason there now
Yeah, no, I I didn't understand right away and then and then he had then he parsed it out and I got I got there
I'm with I understand now having a vote. What was I understandable? Yes
Yes, there we go. That's three. That's all I needed.
We're good.
Oh, that's how, oh, that's the three that you need.
Okay, I see.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, you gave a team weasel down there.
The other, yeah, I mean.
Put you on the team too.
I will say, I mean, the whole we is not me,
and then somebody else was like some kind of animal.
Like, I mean, I was really on the outside looking in man
I like that we just had a really pleasant let's play recording where we weren't arguing We were having a ton of fun, and then we came in hot to this one somehow
Somehow what he means somehow you're opening note was Andrew's an idiot
somehow
You put the the fucking directions into the car,
drove there and said, I don't know how we got here,
somehow, how did that happen?
It's like you called the Uber, asshole.
Oh God.
You went to the destination you wanted.
Andrew, do you by any chance have any notes
that say anything like fuck Gavin or Gavin comma weasel
Anything along those lines I?
Don't I got carrot juice which I'm not happy about I bought some try later
No, I bought some to try later on the hell, but you don't have to do I mean why wait oh
Man, but that'll be so unpleasant for the red. We're just starting this recording.
Yeah, no, I understand what I just said.
Yes.
Yeah.
Okay.
Do you think he's gonna be able to see in the dark
or what's gonna happen?
100% carrot.
Okay.
Insane move.
322% daily value of vitamin A.
Why? Why this many?
Which one is a what does that do for you?
I don't know. Perishable, keep refrigerated.
Anything else interesting on here?
Feel good about what's in this bottle.
I don't. Vitamin A is retinol.
Oh, good for eyeballs.
Mm hmm. Good eyesight. Vitamin A is retinol. Uh. Oh, good for eyeballs?
Good eyesight.
Yeah, it's all for the eyes.
It's an antioxidant, it's good for your hair and skin,
and it boosts the unity.
And teeth. And reproduction.
This is great, Andrew, you don't have to eat fish for the rest of the day.
I'm not an oxidant guy.
I don't trust oxidants.
That's why you want antioxidants.
I know, so you want all of this because they're anti that. Any oxi- well no, anything that says oxidant I don't trust oxidant. That's why you want anti-oxidants. I know, so you want all of this because they're anti that.
Any ox, well, no, anything that says oxidant, I don't like.
You're anti antioxidant?
I'm just any use of oxidant, I'm not a fan of it.
Yeah, no, so he's not anti antioxidant, he's anti-oxidant.
If I see oxidant, I know I'm not gonna like it.
Well, what you're seeing is the absence of oxidant.
You might be pro
oxidant you don't even know. This just smells like carrot, which I don't know
what it is. It's 100% carrot. Imagine opening it and it smells like apples. Oh, that would be
awesome. I'd be all about that. What are the ingredients to this thing? Probably
carrot juice. I got it. I got a couple of guesses can't be all
carrot it's 11 and a half carrots in this bottle it says 11 and a half crazy
holy shit I could shrug 11 carrots I'm well I'm not doing that wait a second
bunny wishes veggies per bottle third three and a half, three and a half bottles of servings.
Where is the so you're about to have three servings of carrot,
probably a quarter of a serving.
Dude, your eyesight's about to blast off.
Why wouldn't you have the whole thing? It's good for you.
Well, this this what day is today?
It expires tomorrow.
So why wait?
So we're just sneaking in on this.
Is it true that baby carrots are just a cut up carrot?
Yeah, I believe that is true, yes.
Not seeing the ingredients, which is a little.
I think it's just carrot, man.
Carrot juice, yeah, that's it.
That's all the ingredient.
Okay, here we go.
What if we discover that Andrew loves carrots?
I think we're about to.
Is he gonna chuck the whole thing?
No, he doesn't have the guts.
You know what?
You like it.
Like it.
You like it.
You know what else is orange?
Garfield.
A lot of good orange things in your life.
Andrew, where'd you go?
Okay.
I gotta say.
I don't know how to feel about this.
This is. This is baffling.
I, as I said, was traumatized by carrot juice as a child.
I'm beginning to wonder if maybe it was like a vegetable mixed juice and it wasn't just pure carrot because this just tastes like carrot.
This is no liquid.
What? It's a carrot.
Jeff, do something.
I'm kind of at a loss as to what to do here.
It's just carrot.
Like, I don't know how you expected it to be anything other than just carrot.
You even read the ingredients.
You were traumatized by some sort of vegetable medley.
I think so. I think it may be a medley.
And it has clouded my vision of just straight carrot juice.
Now, would I excitedly buy this?
No. What happened with the what you choked on it or something?
I was trying to chug it and it's a
lot to chug.
It was I didn't get far.
No, I mean, why were you traumatized
by what you thought was carrot?
Oh, because I I was I thought it
was going to be like a juice like
I had a taste in sweet and
yeah, it was vegetable.
That's that's not unpleasant
at all.
As someone who loves carrots.
So you could do it every day in November.
Uh, I could.
As someone who loves carrots, these carrots are not bad, is what you just said.
That's true.
I just expected it as a liquid to taste different.
As someone who loves carrots, I didn't expect to like carrots.
Well, you know, sometimes when you break something down into a juice form,
it's not it doesn't taste the same.
Yeah. Liquid bacon is not the same as crispy bacon. I got you.
It's true.
I just don't know.
Like this thinking is like I just don't know what you I don't know.
I just don't understand.
I think I may. Well, first of all, as I said, I think it you I don't know. I just don't understand. I think I may.
Well, first of all, as I said, I think it was a vegetable medley.
I think there may be a little bit of that child still in me of vegetables
are gross, like vegetable juice is gross
without actually processing that now it's just the thing you like.
You're an adult. You enjoy.
You enjoy carrots. You enjoy you enjoy carrots.
Enjoy vegetables.
This isn't bad. This is a lot to take in, though.
I couldn't imagine chugging this.
Well, how big how big is it?
It's only 450 milliliters, but it feels dense when you're consuming.
Mm. Thick.
I don't think that most people do chug it.
I can't imagine.
I wouldn't say that that's the preferred way to drink it
It's probably a sipper. You know
It it's really throwing me off now. I was kind of want to see who could shut carrot now
I'll fuck you guys up. Yeah, you will of course dude. I love vegetables. I'm not I
Any you could drink half a liter of?
Liquid carrot, I don't see I don't see why not I'll any drink half a liter of liquid carrot.
I don't see. I don't see why not.
I'd like to try.
I'd like to try. Next time we get together to set stuff on fire with
incense, maybe we'll drink some carrot juice.
Have we talked about the incense thing on a podcast yet?
Yeah, extensively.
Nick said no, I'd reset. Yeah.
Oh, really? That wasn't part of the show?
I never know I guess you know
Listen, I'm wrong if Nick says no. He's right. What is the incense thing?
Eric wait you don't know what we're talking about. I'm trying to set it up for you to go sorry to the audience
But I just that was a really good I thought you did a great job
Yeah, I realized what you were doing as I was talking. And Gavin's got it in for you today.
Eric came in hot and said that
there's no way an incense stick could start a fire.
I agree.
It's going to like melt your synthetic carpet,
but you're not gonna,
we talked about this because I was talking about
like lighting
incense the other day or whatever, because your room smells
like cat shit piss or whatever.
Yeah.
But I said it in one too, because the cats would knock it
over and over.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then and then it was and then I think we said like, what
are you worried about?
Like it catching on fire?
And you said, yeah.
And then Nick would, yeah, it catch on fire.
And then I know it's not.
I don't think it would catch on fire.
So we're going to get together at our next live recording and we're going to
try to build fire all fucking survivor. But with incense and see if we can catch anything on fire.
But it's a constant ember.
It if it just sat in carpet for like 10 seconds, surely it would burn the car.
We'll find out. It will melt the carpet.
I don't think it's going to start a fire. Melt? What'll find out it will melt the carpet It's I don't think it's gonna start a fire
What do you mean? Well melt let's find out yeah? This is all what are we get? Let what are you guys doing next Friday?
ooh
Set a carpet on fire. I guess let's let's get some carpet and set it on fire Nick's out of the office
So he won't even get a play
You'll be fine
So he won't even get a play
You'll be fine
Speaking of rads, I get some I got some supplemental content on this pitch you guys a little bit what
What is that speaking of rats? I have some no no no I know but what it like
What do you mean what what rat related content is not getting I have to rat related ideas in addition to other ideas Andrew heard that there's rat content and he got sick of the weasel and he's fucking done.
I, the, oh, do you think the carrots,
Andrew, the carrots took you out?
Andrew.
I'm back, sorry about that, my internet dropped.
We thought maybe the carrots took you down.
Yeah, we assumed it was carrot related.
But to sum it up and just to, you know, people are going to post, here's the thing, like
Nick did, here's the thing online that said don't light this on fire because it'll start
a fire.
Yeah, things on fire can start a fire.
When you burn an incense and then you blow it out so that way it just goes, and it's
just like the little wafts of smoke, that's not going to set anything on fire.
Where do you think the wafts of smoke come from?
It's an ember.
And my, listen, and the reason I back Eric up here is because I can't light incense on
fire with incense and it's designed to burn.
There's no way.
There's no way you can't hold incense to incense and make incense catch on fire when
incense is already on fire.
So I'm excited to test this out and I'll be happy to be wrong if I am.
But I don't think Eric and I are wrong.
If you if you hold incense to petrol, do you think it will burn?
Hold incense to, oh, to like gasoline?
Yeah, puddle of gasoline.
Uh, I, I don't know.
I don't like that seems what an insane thing to have in your house, I guess.
Here's my bucket of gas and I put it right next to my
incense. You did what?
If it's if it's not burning, then what's the problem?
No, I'm saying it's not hot enough to catch like your
normal room on fire.
I don't think that I'm out of line here at all.
I don't think I think that if you are keeping your incense next to your gasoline
You shouldn't be you should throw your hat in the ring for this one. Well, I'm pulling out of this conversation
Don't store gasoline and incense next to each other. Everybody knows that. You probably don't store gas for very long
Anyway, well if you want to wait for the price to come down. Yeah, yeah, it's true. What do you do with your old gas? I just drink it down. Yeah, but the carrot juice,
mix it with carrot juice. Yeah, mix it with carrot juice. I get my, I get my, get my vitamin
A and my vitamin G gasoline all in one place. Is it still anti-oxidant at that point? Oh no, it's, it's pure
oxidant. Oh, fuck yeah. Okay. Yeah, yeah. So, Eric, if you if you feel strongly about this, would you say you left your house for an hour and I'm in there?
OK. And I've got like a hundred and cents sticks and I'm just lighting them and blowing them out and flinging them all over.
Would you be fine with that?
Yeah, I don't I don't think it's going to catch anything on fire.
Oh, wow. OK.
I was not expecting you to say yes.
OK.
I mean, like winging them with the curtains into the kitchen towels.
I'm not sure I'm not sure why you would be doing this or what scenario this would exist in because I'm talking about a real
Practical scenario where you light incense put it on your little shelf and then have it
Shh and then a cat knocks it over and then your whole house burns down that
Yeah, I'm saying is that's never, ever, ever going to happen.
Yeah, that's it.
Hmm. The fact that he needs 100 incense to burn your house down
makes me feel like he doesn't even believe in your argument.
He's a lot.
And here's what I need.
I did it. I did a drum of gasoline, a hundred cats and a thousand incense sticks.
Nick is typing when he can just talk. Yeah.
Great podcasting, bud.
He does it all the time.
He types.
He does.
He is in this argument.
That is true.
If he gets all the way in, he has to lean forwards though.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. And he's in this argument. My back's bad now, you know?
I think, whose side is Nick on?
I'm on your side.
Thanks.
Yeah, you're right.
Thanks Nick.
No, thanks.
Gavin's just testing to see what level it will take
for you to actually change your side.
If you leave an incense stick on fire and then just leave,
that's probably not good.
If you light an incense stick on fire and go
and blow out the fire of it,
look, I can already see the Reddit comments
on this whole thing.
I'm not worried about it.
I have my incense.
I'm not lighting my house on fire with it.
Don't worry about it.
I hate to see Team Weasel turn on themselves so quickly.
I will say I have lit incense every night in my house,
probably since the day I met Emily,
because she's big into incense, and when she gets home,
you know, she works late at the salon,
and so when she comes home, I like to have the house
all smelling and looking good for her,
and so I always light a little bit of incense for her.
And every day of my life for probably seven years,
and I have never had even close to an errant issue
with incense setting anything on fire
or getting out of control or being dangerous
in any way whatsoever.
This incense is fucking out of control.
Out of control.
But I want to go back to what,
I want to know what Jeff's rat content is.
Oh, yeah.
So I came, I went into the lab the other day.
I felt like it'd been a minute since I'd come up
with some new ideas.
And I've been thinking a lot about supplemental.
I've been thinking a lot about getting out
and doing stuff in the world.
And so I came up with a couple of ideas
I wanted to pitch you guys on today.
The first one I like,
I think Eric will not like it specifically
And I think we won't do it in much the same way you guys won't let me do the tombstone one
But that's okay because maybe somebody will make a video game out of it
You guys know I want to go do a show where we walk around the mall right? I wanted to call it mall walkers
Everybody on earth let me know there's another show called mall walkers where people do that
We won't call it mallwalkers, but guess what?
Other people play GTA.
We still play GTA.
We're allowed to go fucking to a mall and record ourselves.
We'll probably still do it in some fashion.
But that got me thinking maybe we'll tweak the idea a little bit.
Although I do just think us walking around the mall is a phenomenal idea and I'm still
on board for it.
But I got to thinking, what if we just call it something different like Mallrats?
And I was like, oh, I love that phrase.
But then that's like a Kevin Smith thing.
And I think he's making a sequel to Mall Rats, even maybe.
And so I don't want to be caught up in the middle of that.
So I was thinking like Mall Brats, right?
Because that's like a play on Mall Rats,
but Brat Summer's over and I don't want to, you know,
I don't want to relive that.
So what if instead we have a show
where we all go around the mall
and I get one of those rubber mall rats,
one of those rubber rats, and I hide it somewhere those rubber mall rats, one of those rubber rats,
and I hide it somewhere in the mall
and then we play rat mall.
And then everybody goes around the mall
and you try to find the rat I hid in the mall.
Rat mall.
Rat mall.
Gavin, any thoughts on rat mall?
Sign me up.
Oh, I knew Gavin was on board from the jump. I'll play ratmall and I was just thinking how much fun
It would be if there was unintended consequences like some people thought the rat was real or so security finds it
You know and they're like what the fuck is this rubber rat isn't a prank, but it's not a prank
It's just us playing a game. I try to see a lot of unintended hilarity. I also
Man, I want somebody else to hide it
so you can play Ratmall, Jeff.
Yeah, maybe we'll get Emily or somebody,
or anybody's wife or friend can come out
and hide it for us,
and then we can all play Ratmall together.
I think you should have to have somebody
in the mall hide it for you.
I think you need to convince somebody who's there.
You hand a guy a footlocker or a rat,
hey, do something about this. We need an inside person. Yeah.
OK, so that's my first idea.
Rat mall. Can we wear exterminator clothes?
I think we should.
I think you can dress however it makes you feel like you are best at finding the rat.
I want to come up with my own pest control company and get a logo made and wear a big.
I know what I know what Nick will be wearing.
He'll be wearing a big pair of red boots.
That's right.
OK, here's my second idea I want to hit you guys with.
I like this idea better than the first idea.
I've been thinking a lot about the past.
I've been reminiscing a little bit.
And one of my favorite, one of the favorite productions I ever made
when we were doing Achievement Hunter back in the day was the show
I made called Sunday driving and what that show was was essentially what I did already
It's an old timey thing that people used to do back in the day
they would just go Sunday driving back when cars were novel and
You would just drive around and enjoy the weather and listen to music or whatever and so in Grand Theft Auto
I had this game that we would do
I don't know. I guess it wasn't really a game
But this video we would do where I would drive know, I guess it wasn't really a game,
but this video we would do where I would drive around
and I would pick somebody up on the street, like say Gavin,
and then we would just start talking
and have a conversation and we'd go look for somebody else
and eventually we'd find Andrew and pick him up
and then find Eric, whatever,
and just go through the whole thing
and make a video out of it and we're just talking
and then the conversation flows interestingly
because you're adding people to it as it goes.
And I was thinking about how much fun that was.
We've been back in GTA.
We've been kicking the tires on GTA quite a bit.
But I thought, why do that in GTA?
Why not do it in real life?
What if you guys go downtown in Austin
in like a five or a six mile radius
and just stand on street corners
and maybe one of you gives me like an address location
and I just have to drive and pick up, like, say, Eric.
And then Eric and I have to figure out how to navigate to Gavin and Nick.
And we just have a conversation while we do it.
And then once we're all in the car, we we go get ice cream or hot dogs or something.
I love it. We do Sunday driving in real life on a Sunday.
Everyone you pick up has has the clue to the next person.
Yeah, that's like something like that.
So there's like we gamify it a little bit.
But the point of it is the conversation and the journey, not necessarily like winning.
So we don't want to make it too hard.
But I like the idea of there being kind of stakes and us trying to figure.
Like I feel like that would be more fun than just GPSing to somebody, you know?
Yeah, definitely.
I think I think no maps is a really fun way to do that too.
With like just trying to figure out
what streets everything is on, I think it's great.
Yeah, and then like I was thinking we could dash cam
but also if you don't want to
because I'm also cognizant of not wanting to step on toes.
I know 100% Eat does a thing
where you guys record yourselves from the dash cam. And so I wouldn't want to appear too similar to that so another idea
I had if we don't want to do it that way is then we could go back and cam it in GTA
GTA would be insane
That is so much extra work. I'd rather just film it what an insane amount of work that is
I don't think it is an insane amount of work
I think we just listen to it it and then we just all play GTA
while we listen to it.
And then we just like.
We would just machinimate it as a big one.
And then think about how realistic the audio is.
That is crazy.
That's crazy.
Wow.
Either way we do it, I think a real life slash real life
and the GTA Sunday driving
could would be a lot of fun.
And I think that might be a cool Patreon show.
What if we do it in real life?
What if we do it in real life where you pick me up and then I have the clue to go get Gavin
and then Gavin has the clue to go get Nick.
And then after we go get Nick, we end up like we record all this in real life and then we do it in the game.
But at that point where we go get Nick, that's where we end
and then we pick up the rest of the conversation
and it's in the game, but now Andrew can go
and we pick up Andrew and then we do something in the game.
That's cool too.
So then we are all participating.
I like that too.
If you didn't wanna do the navigation thing,
maybe I'm like on a call like a discord call with Jeff and I have maps of Austin
And I'm the only one who knows where everybody is and I'm having to try to relay to Jeff how to get to these people
I think that is a completely separate idea. That's its own show I
Think that's like keep talking and nobody explodes, but like I think that's its own show. I think that's like, keep talking and nobody explodes, but like, I think that's a great idea.
Andrew Navigation?
Yeah, like Andrew Navigation.
I think we do like a scavenger hunt
or something through Austin and Andrew Navigates this.
I think that could be fucking fun.
I mean, we can combine it with this too,
but I think there's a lot there just in that alone.
Yeah, God, this is great.
That's kind of like the second idea I had in the lab.
And then the third idea I had,
I actually had the other night,
we all, we went to dinner, what was it, Sunday night for your small wife's birthday, Eric?
Yes.
And so when we were done, we all said goodbye in a parking garage and I was just thinking,
it struck me that we were the only people in the parking garage, it was like 11 o'clock
at night when we were finished with dinner in the parking garage, it was like 11 o'clock at night
when we were finished with dinner.
And it was just like this downtown parking garage.
And it was empty and the sound was like,
I don't know, the place was,
the sound was kind of baffling.
And it was just like, it was a cool environment.
And I thought, it's funny that we're the only people
in this whole space right now.
It would be fun to film something in here,
but everybody was going their separate ways.
And it was, you know, we all went to bed or whatever,
went home.
And that got me thinking, we should go back and do a podcast where we record in odd spaces.
Now, there was a podcast back in the day that Rooster Teeth, that was on the Roost called
Podcast But Outside.
I don't want to rip off their idea where they would just like set up a folding table and
they would invite people to come and they would have a conversation.
But what if we did a, like a supplemental series called Hide and they would invite people to come and then they would have a conversation. But what if we did like a supplemental series
called hide and speak where we went out in public
and then we've had to find a place where we hid.
Kind of like how Gavin would hide in Halo 2
behind the ramp.
And then we get in there, we hide, we're in public,
but we're like, I don't know, behind a tree
or we're in like a cubby somewhere and we're hidden and we record until somebody catches us, sees us or until we hit like 20
minutes and then it's over. And if we like hit 20 minutes, we complete the goal, which
is to stay hidden for the whole time. But we just do public podcasts, but they're hidden
from the public. Hide and speak.
I love it. I love it just for the name. So I'm in. Great.
Did that start with the name first? No, I came up with the name about an hour ago.
The name the name's phenomenal. Thank you. Right before we started the the let's play I came up with the name.
Okay, last idea I have this this one is a video game.
Okay, I saw today and I just had this idea today. I saw today on the on the
regulation subreddit,
somebody mentioned that in Feed the Beast,
which is a Minecraft mod utility, I guess,
would be how you describe it,
there is a rats mod where you can play as rats
and have rats all over the game and stuff.
And so I was thinking,
what if when we finally play Minecraft,
we do, but we only play as rats
and we only do rat things and we call it rat craft.
I mean, I like that as a like, yeah, I want to do that.
Like a one off.
It wouldn't be like a whole series.
Yeah.
I think that's fun.
We return to Minecraft for one time only for rat.
And it's rat.
And we play once. This concludes. Oh, I have one other idea
I don't think we'll actually do it
But I was thinking it would be fun if you ever if you guys ever wanted to have a roadside
Attraction because I feel like that could be a lot of fun
An area that people haven't really
Drove into yet. I think that could be that could be fun is retractions, you know
Like when a newspaper has to run a retraction
What if you had a roadside retractions attraction
where it was a roadside attraction that was full of retractions
and you would go in and you would just see all the people
all the things people had to apologize for.
That's it. I'm done.
What are the retractions about?
That's like anything was in the New York Times
that issue of attraction.
It's just all retractions are there.
So if you ever wanted to see a retraction,
it's the clearinghouse of all retractions.
People are hearing this and probably going like, that's that's so weird. That's crazy
Whatever drive anywhere on route 66 and stop on any of those things
We just saw cars in the ground that you could spray paint. This is no different from that
This is this is not a bad idea. Yeah, it's no different than the world's largest thermometer
I like all these out in the world ideas.
Well, the roadside retractions, the traction was just the dumb
name idea I had that I had to throw out there.
So it's been making me giggle for a couple of weeks.
But the other the other things I would actually like to do.
It reminds me, Andrew, did you ever find the building?
What? Oh, no. Still looking.
Still looking. I'm still trying to find it. No idea where it is.
This is from when Andrew sent me a picture of somewhere in Austin
and I had to find where it was and I immediately found it.
And then I sent him somewhere in Nanaimo.
Oh, and just a picture of a place that he's still never found.
How long ago was that?
Months, months ago.
So I happened to pick a coffee shop that he had previously been to.
Yeah. You sent me a picture of a building.
It didn't say the name, but I recognized it.
I was like, oh, that's that's how Sienna went there with whoever.
Yeah, still found it. Still looking.
You have to update us when you do.
Oh, I listen. It'll be top of my notes.
Oh, that's good.
I actually have one thing that to bring to the table and it's Gavin won't stop sending me voice memos.
We found out dinner on your small wife's birthday, which is for some reason also my birthday.
We, for some reason I got brought a happy birthday dessert and so did she.
And I was like, Oh, my birthday.
My wife said that she was so happy that happened because it wasn't
Like she didn't have like all the attention on her. It was like oh good
Everyone's paying attention to Gavin and like the goofy birthday thing by the way that that fucking place that we went is my favorite restaurant
In all of Austin. I love it so much. Although the service was a little all over the map
I thought so yeah, but fucking yogurt is not dessert
Thought it was really good. I loved map. I thought so. But fucking yogurt is not dessert.
That is really good. I loved it. I thought it was fantastic.
Yeah. But but during that meal, Eric, let me know that he hates voice memos being sent.
Yeah, faster for the sender, but slower for the receiver.
It is. It's absolutely true.
If you're so distracted that you can't type out your thing concisely, that you're just
recording a voice note that
is like 45 seconds long because you're driving or whatever. Don't bother. Yeah. I've received
a lot and I've never sent any, but now I'm sending him. He is sending them to Eric.
He's just sent just a slurp of his coffee. Yep. Just out here enjoying some coffee. It's
like you have any previews. You have anything lined up that you could share?
I've got I've got a good.
Response from Eric, because he sent one in reply.
I hate this.
None of that came through.
None of it came through.
I think I said, I hate this.
That is that is correct.
Not a fan, but it is the only way that Gavin texts me now. So you sit through it.
Also, it's, you can see like it'll transcribe it, but it won't transcribe.
It says like tap for more or whatever.
And then at that point, you're already so, so many steps into this thing that it's just not none of this is worth it
It's the worst but now because I don't text Eric that much and I want to send him voice memos. I'm just
Sending them for no reason. I'm just like sending like a little check-ins
I'm just telling about stuff that I would never normally text it so but no
And that's really what the voice memo thing is anyway is that it's just butal stuff that is to you and not for you.
Uh, I probably won't play down the mic, but it's transcribed it.
This is one I sent him.
Hey man.
Yeah.
I'm just out at dinner.
I'm wondering your thoughts on whether I should get this big guy chocolate cake
or not decided, but I figured I'd ask around some friends.
Yeah.
Cause, uh, one of the desserts at the restaurant I was at was a big guy
chocolate cake, so, you know, I'm just checking in. I'm just seeing how he's doing.
Did you get it?
I didn't because he didn't say anything apart from I hate this.
Yeah, I think I just said I hate this. I didn't care about the big guy chocolate cake.
My wife, though, loves it. My wife thinks this is hilarious.
She keeps telling me what to say back to Gavin and I just keep going. I don't want to like,
I don't want I tried like once and then I just went, this is not for me. I don't want to like, I don't want, I tried like once.
And then I just went, this is not for me. I don't want to encourage this. What did she
want you to say to me? I, I don't remember what it was or what, cause you've sent me
a bunch of voice memos and she has heard them and then she would be like, Oh, say this.
And I'm like, I don't remember what it is. And it's just like, no, I don't want to encourage
this behavior. This is terrible. I think you two should have to communicate exclusively via walkie
talkie for like a week.
I think you both need walkie talkies and that's the only way you can talk to each other.
Hmm.
You don't have to be as concise there.
I don't have to do it all as big.
What?
One big long take.
No, but I think it's funny for you to just be able to like buzz in.
Like you guys get your code names, whatever your trucker names are. names are use those what is what's the range on a walkie talkie?
I'm sure you could get a ridiculously long-range one. Maybe we should get into ham radio. Oh
You can go across the fucking globe in here radio. Hey, it's all bounce it off the atmosphere
Let's see what some long-range walkie talkies go for
But long range is like what is long range walkie talkies go for. But long range is like, what is long range?
I have no idea.
I don't know.
Man.
$400 will get you two walkie talkie.
Oh my God, they're normally a thousand dollars.
But everyone's saying like, it's a pretty.
Unlimited range.
What does that mean?
I don't know if unlimited range.
I don't know if I should range.
Yeah, I don't believe that.
I don't believe that at all.
Unlimited distance, unlimited use nationwide.
I think it's just a phone.
I have a 50 foot ham,
I have a 50 foot ham tower that gives me about 13 miles
of range with these walkie talkies around the house.
What the fuck?
You have a what?
Let's get into ham towers. I don't's get into ham towers.
I don't want to get into ham towers.
We're in a different ham zone, but we're back in the ham zone.
We're in the return to the ham zone?
We're a whole different kind of ham fandom.
Wow.
Maybe that's what the ham was about.
Oh, ham fan?
Could have been a radio fan, not a Hamilton fan.
Yeah, I'd be willing to if we could get the range, I would do the walkie talkie then.
I just think it's funny.
For how long? The week? Yeah.
You have to buzz whenever it's more intrusive, I feel like.
I don't want to do that.
Because it's a live thing.
Yeah, I think so, because the message
there's an implied like you can get to it when you get to it,
where you just you're just demanding that Eric
respond in this moment to help you with your cake decision.
Oh, I got a voice message from Eric.
Oh, you did? I'll see if it plays through.
I don't want to do that. Thank you.
Now, is that the ham radio or just radios in general assume all of this.
All of it. All of it.
Gavin is Gavin is right.
You know, I got to say, though, that's a great way to communicate
because I feel like I can understand and Eric Moore here because of the inflection.
I'm not just having to interpret the text.
Right, right, but that was a quick,
that one was a, what, a three second thing.
Gavin is sending me stuff that's like 25 seconds plus,
and you're trapped.
If I could like skip through or fast forward or whatever,
then at least there's something there.
And also it's about nothing.
There's the difference.
It's about big guy chocolate cake.
There's the difference, Eric.
You might be trapped, but I hang on his every word.
Go sit in his lap and shit.
What if I send the messages directly to your small wife and she can relay any important
info to you?
Why don't you go ahead and do that?
I'm scared.
Yeah, texting my wife voice messages. Hey, so what have you guys been up to? Go ahead and do that
Gavin's been sending my wife a lot of voice memo
Maybe we need to add a slack channels is this voice memos oh
Terrible oh, we found out that our fart channel got archives. Yeah, that's a bum. Did it slack is holding Jeff's farts hostage?
Farts went behind the paywall. Yeah over 90 days old yeah
You're supposed to pay for slack, and we just don't there is a premium Yeah, paid for version of slack and then the free version and when I went to film something
I thought I could pull Jeff's farts and nothing was there.
And so I texted him, did you delete all your where did the farts go?
And he was like, why did you delete all your?
Why did you do this?
Like very accusatory. And I was like, what?
Well, I just assumed that if anyone were going to delete it, like I just did.
Why would I ever? I don't know.
That's why I was asking.
And then it just sent me a screenshot.
I didn't have it on my display of them saying that after like 30 or whatever,
however many days it archives it, it's not permanently gone.
If I pay for slack now, they will reappear.
So they're holding Jeff's for hostage.
I think it's so funny.
I was able to find the farts on my phone and send them to him.
And I was actually kind of happy because when I did
I remembered I had completely forgotten that right before I stopped recording
I had started recording all my diarrhea as well and man those are some sounds. Oh, yeah
Why are you recording diarrhea? I don't know. I don't know why
We're a pulse. I don't know. It was pretty gross, right? I don't know what the point of that was, but I did it
And I got a bunch of them. I feel like we're using for something.
Where are you holding the phone during that?
Just out in front of me. Like if I was reading it.
Yeah. Do you think I'm like wedging it down
into the toilet to get like superior sound?
No. Yes. Yes, I did think that.
I think it's because my shits are so loud
that I can have a shit upstairs and Emily can hear it in the front yard. Like it is-
Why don't you put your phone in the front yard and we'll see if that's true.
Dad, we can do that. We can absolutely do that.
Oh my god.
See how loud my shits are? Yeah, we could do that.
I can play some for you right now. It's very loud.
No, it's good. We're good.
No, I mean, we'll just- we'll just test it with like the experiment later.
Yeah, you don't need to send it.
You sure? Because I got-
Positive.
Oh yeah, no, we're sure. Thanks.
Okay. Yeah, you don't need to send it. We're sure because I got positive. I know. Yeah, no, we're sure. Thanks. OK.
I needed the the Jeff Farts for a video that we filmed in the Quiet Place game.
I got a code for it and I've been playing it and they had a feature where you can make
use your mic to capture your environmental audio,
doing testing of different things that you wouldn't see in the movie,
but are very much a part of day to day life.
And I've been playing the game a lot.
That's a really fun game.
I was surprised by how tense it was for me
as somebody who had like seen the movies.
I think it's almost the best thing you could say about a licensed game
where it has changed my view of those films.
Like it has made me so much more invested and feel so much more intense for the characters
because it is it's tough to be quiet.
Should we try a let's play in it?
Oh, that'd be fun.
Yeah, it might be fun to kind of do what we did and have have all of our discord
audio be coming through.
So we will have to be quiet.
Well, the problem with it, I originally thought, oh, I'll do a let's play.
But I ended up getting so into character.
I just wasn't talking like I was in a let's play. But I ended up getting so into character, I just wasn't talking.
Like I was in a group call with some people while playing it.
And I just could not speak because I was like, I got to be fucking quiet,
even though it couldn't pick up my voice is just so to be fair.
You did the same in Tombstone, Tali.
Well, we were all doing it to stuff.
I like the idea that we could we could only really have conversations
by waterfalls and stuff.
Well, a little talk sound little hide and speak, if you will.
I'm going to share my screen for a minute.
I have a clip from when I was playing it.
I thought I was the smartest person in the world for a moment.
And it went very much against me.
So I'm sharing my screen.
So you're trying to be sneaky.
It is the whole thing of like, you're just trying to avoid these aliens
as quiet as possible.
And I was in I was in a real bad situation where you have these moments.
Where you get these planks and you have to lay them down.
This is the first time I'd used a plank.
So there is a the alien is following me around to give context of this clip,
and I'll explain it while walking through. So I'm holding this plank and the alien is following me around to give context of this clip and I'll explain it while walking through
So I'm holding this plank and the alien is close by and I'm like I just got to get across here
And then I'll checkpoint and some walk in and I see I've never placed one before I place it
You have to slowly do it so it doesn't make noises in this flop
I turn around the aliens right fucking there
I'm like a whole god, and I thought you clicked. I turn around, the alien's right fucking there. I'm like, oh, God.
And I thought you clicked A to go across,
but that's how you reset it.
So then I had to place it again,
and I'm slowly bringing it down.
And then I turn and I'm like, I wanna move,
but the alien's right there and I make noise every step.
What do I do?
What do I, fuck.
Oh, he's looking at me.
And I'm like, I'll just get on the beam
so that way he can't get me.
I'm just gonna, I'm gonna stand here and I'll wait for him to leave while I just hang out on this beam
I fucking broke. Oh
You can't just stand on the beam is what I thought
beam breaks the beam breaks
It's all of I was just clipping non-stop
I'm you shitting myself playing this game every time I'd have it interact with this is my first one or I'm just like walking through trying to
be a sneaky just looking at my bar you can see how much noise you're making in
contrast to the world around you and I'm like okay everything's all good and it's
the fucking right oh my god holy shit is because, you know, like in the movie,
I never think about the idea of like if you end up next to one of these things,
what do you just kind of stuck?
You can't move.
You make noise.
Your lungs aren't looking good.
No, it's real bad.
You play as an asthmatic pregnant woman, which is a deadly combo
for a quiet place scenario.
Just tiptoeing.
But we're going to have a almost like a blackout type thing coming out for that.
It'll be up by the time this comes out.
If you want to see the video of that, the the the YouTube version will have it in.
Yes. If you're listening.
That's not the only gaming thing.
You mind if I pivot to another game?
Jeff, you were part of this.
I was I was playing Sea of Thieves.
Having a good time by myself.
Just relaxing, doing some chess, getting up some loot and treasure.
And I got boarded by two people who are dicks and they killed.
They just kept killing me over and over again.
I noticed a ship on a different island and I thought, I'll avoid that.
I don't want to fight.
They had, I guess, canniballed or like rowboated to where I was
and just hated my boat.
And then when I went to leave, they just started killing me.
And their plan was to steer my boat back to their boat, to sink me
and then steal all my stuff.
But at the last minute, I killed them and I took control of my boat back to their boat to sink me and then steal all my stuff. But at the last minute, I killed them
and I took control of my boat again and I escaped.
Then another ship showed up and started attacking them, sunk them.
I thought, this is great.
I can now just get rid of all my stuff and sell it.
They happen to spawn in the path of where I need to go.
So then we started a whole new chase and they were just trying to shoot me.
They were like clearly very experienced in this game.
And so I pulled up my recent players.
I recognized one of the names.
And once again, great feature at Xbox.
You can link your Twitch account to your profile.
And if they do that, you can open their Twitch.
And so I opened the Twitch and it was they were streaming
their perspective of chasing me. And so I opened the Twitch and it was they were streaming their perspective of chasing me.
And so I tweeted out, hey, these guys are chasing me.
It's real like this isn't going great. Go watch if you want.
And then their chat went from they had two people in their stream.
It was the guy who was streaming himself watching and his friend who was playing with him watching.
And they suddenly spiked to 100 viewers and they didn't know why.
And they started freaking about out as to why.
It was also very funny where I was messing with them
and he was the most upset streamer I've ever heard.
He was cursing and like punching the wall and be like,
do fuck bullshit, this is the word fucking thing.
And then all these people showed up and they're like, oh, hey, hey,
hey, there are people here.
Well, I get raided by somebody and they didn't know how to react.
They were losing their minds about it.
And the chat was so fucking funny where nobody was revealing
where they came from, but they were making all sorts of references
to the podcast.
Like this is regulation stream and all that type of thing.
And they had no clue what was going on.
And so I texted Gavin saying like I need help
because I was trying to accomplish something
and I really needed a second hand on deck.
And I know Gavin has never had one of these moments in that game.
So I thought, oh, it'd be great to let Gavin see this side of this game
that he hasn't seen before.
Gavin was busy. So then I went to the slag.
It is anyone around.
And Jeff was kind enough to hop on and help with this this getaway,
which was perfect because I I did a thing that allowed me to go into a part of the map
that you can only go to if you do that thing.
And they did not know that you had to manually activate it.
So they went to swap over to do what I was doing and it would not work for them.
And so they got sunk all while yelling about it.
And it was it was great trolling.
And then we had to try to escape.
The problem when all the people joined is they became way more committed to sinking.
Me. It was like, oh, they're never going to stop.
They're just going to continue to chase.
And so I said, Jeff, take the wheel and go west.
And Jeff, you there's no fault of your own.
I did not know Jeff had never steered the boat before.
So the first question Jeff said was, how do I tell which way is West?
And there's a compass right next to the wheel that tells you what direction you're going.
Yeah, he instantly figured it out after that.
So ignore me.
And then you said, I think you misinterpreted the wind.
It was a whole thing. But it's like, oh, boy, we are.
This is an unexperienced crew for this scenario.
It's not great. And unfortunately, interpret the wind.
I don't even know what he's talking about there.
I don't. You said like, how do I?
I don't remember.
It was a small detail, but it was you.
I think we won voice on voice chat token.
We're on Discord.
Yeah, we are.
No, yeah, we're talking back and forth.
And I sent Jeff a link to the stream so he could hear what they were saying.
They wanted me banned for stream sniper.
They were not because I was in their chat saying, like, hey, maybe you should
let this guy go.
Maybe this isn't worth it.
Maybe you should just let them escape.
They eventually killed us.
But they eventually. Yeah.
We did not.
We did not last long beyond sinking them in that one instance.
I'm not much help in a fight in a game I haven't played since the last time
we recorded in it, which would have been.
Yeah. Rooster Teeth went under, I think. I think I'm the same way, though, you know, I don't think since the last time we recorded in it, which would have been the rooster teeth went under, I think.
I think I'm the same way, though, you know, I don't think I've ever driven the boat.
I just never considered it was very funny to be like, OK, Jeff, you take the wheel.
I was weird. I was like, I've literally never.
I mean, I'm surely I have for like one second before, but I've whenever I play
with the bird dog and Antonio, Antonio is always the captain.
And whenever I play with you all, Andrew is always the captain.
So I just never come up.
That's yeah, it's funny.
But it was so I think it's the thing I'm going to do whenever anybody is chasing me.
And I noticed they happen to be streaming.
Is it so funny to see the reaction change and how they adjust?
I was hoping it would kind of throw them off, which it did initially.
But that was great.
It was a lot of fun. After you messaged me, I reinstalled
Sea of Thieves. Great.
Just in case I was able to jump in again.
And then today, Call of Duty needed like a 300 gig update.
So I deleted it.
Dude, I wish you wouldn't.
They just released a big update to Sea of Thieves that we should play.
I need to get bigger storage.
Oh, I don't want to shit on us for not having a bigger storage? You're constantly shitting on us for not having enough space.
What a great turn near the end of the episode that this just took. This is fantastic.
I just went and bought a 2 terabyte fucking drive because Gavin shit on me in an episode like 3 weeks ago.
Yeah, mine's 1 terabyte, but I had to delete Fallout and uh...
Well, we're not gonna use Fallout, that's fine.
Yeah, and Sea of Thieves.
Reinstall Sea of Thieves. And uh, well, we're not gonna use fallout. That's fine. Yeah and sea of thieves reinstall sea of thieves
I just I just need more time to properly consider what to do
Yeah, I just did it quickly because we were we're gonna play I understand but they just released like a trolling update, which is cool
They did but this man always shitting on us deleting stuff. He's deleting stuff. He's just quietly deleting
Well, I couldn't exactly be I'm gonna get a bigger storage, but that wouldn't help me today when we needed to play the other game.
Interesting.
I feel like that wouldn't fly if you were on the other end of this conversation right now.
Interesting.
I feel like that wouldn't be good enough.
I feel like Gavin would hit back with a, but we need the space today.
Or one of those snarky comments.
Yeah, it's a portable drive. hard drive. Snarky comments. Yeah.
It's a portable drive.
I may have snarked it.
I think it's also a bit of a bummer that, you know, if you upgrade from one terabyte to two
terabytes you can't, it's not three, you just have to take out the one and then go anyway.
It really does suck.
Oh, got a voicemail I think.
Oh you did?
Oh god.
Oh yeah, Eric told us to wrap it up.
Hey man, I think they got you on this one sorry.
Nah I was just agreeing with you guys and letting Gavin know that he got got. Oh can I leave voice memos on slack? Yeah I can.
Oh shit. Oh no. Oh shit. Are you guys getting in a huddle? No that's a whole other thing. I love to huddle up though. Great music in the huddle? Oh, no, that's a whole other thing. I love to huddle up that great music in the huddle.
Andrew made a voice. Oh, can I play this?
I mean, it's just what I said. But yeah, you heard the family voice memos on Slack.
Yeah, I can't. Oh, I see.
Well, I was testing.
I think this is we're we're getting into the voice
memo territory and I'm very excited about it.
This is our voice memo era.
I think so. Sorry.
Are there voice memos on Discord for the Falcons?
Could we?
Could we?
I don't know.
I feel like we could just go into the channel right now and then finish the episode out
over there and that would be something, but that's all I could really think of.
Message Eric Bedor.
Don't message Eric Bedor.
Wrap up episode instead of message Eric Bidour.
I don't think I can send a voicemail.
Yeah, congratulations on making it a quarter of a century, guys.
The 25 episodes of Regulation podcast.
It seems like just yesterday that we ended the f***face at episode 206?
207? Whatever it was.
What did? What was it? 206! Yeah, but it was our... 207? Whatever it was. What did, what was it? 206!
Yeah, but it was our-
206?
206 would have been our 205th episode, is that right?
So we did one episode for every bone in the body.
That's yeah, that was cool.
Which was exactly how we planned it out.
And thank you for finally revealing the true secret of the base.
It was only designed to go as many, as many episodes as we have bones in a body.
How are we going to end Regulation? Hopefully we have more than 180 odd episodes or so to go.
We're gonna have to get some new bones. Speaking of getting new bones, you guys should go get a
t-shirt over at TheRegulationStore.com or if buying a t-shirt is not your thing, maybe go check out our Patreon over at.
Well, you know what? Just go to Regulatrion dot com or Jeff dot sucks.
And that'll answer all your questions and have a good day or night.
I don't know what time it I don't even know when you're listening to this.
But if it's evening, have a good evening.
If it's in the morning, have a good day.
That's a fantastic outro.
Yeah, I just had a quick question for Eric and Gavin before we wrapped up.
Did you guys have hot dog paranoia last night because the hot dog counters were flying?
I never have hot dog paranoia. No, okay. It's not a competition
It's not one dog so that the dog I just look at the nice pictures. Yeah, that's true
Takes the great photos. I take a photo of every hot dog I eat
Bye bye
